Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multiple genetic loci associated with lipid levels have been identified predominantly in Europeans, and the issue of to what extent these genetic loci can predict blood lipid levels increases over time and the incidence of future hyperlipidemia remains largely unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies of lipid levels in 8344 subjects followed by...
