Genetics of cardiovascular disease: Importance of sex and ethnicity.

Atherosclerosis - 1 Jul 2015

Winham Stacey J, de Andrade Mariza, Miller Virginia M

Abstract excerpt

Sex differences in incidence and prevalence of and morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease are well documented. However, many studies examining the genetic basis for cardiovascular disease fail to consider sex as a variable in the study design, in part, because there is an inherent difficulty in studying the contribution of the sex chromosomes in women due to X chromosome inactivation. This paper will...
