Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genomic research in cardiovascular disease (CVD) has progressed rapidly over the last 5 years. In most cases, however, these groundbreaking observations have not yet been accompanied by clinically applicable tools for risk prediction, diagnosis, or therapeutic interventions. CONTENT: We reviewed the scientific literature published in English for novel methods and promising genomic targets that would...
