Clonal Hematopoiesis and Its Impact on Cardiovascular Disease.

Abstract excerpt

A number of recent epidemiological studies have associated the clonal expansion of hematopoietic cells, a process referred to as clonal hematopoiesis, with increased mortality. Clonal hematopoiesis increases the risk of hematological cancer, but this overall risk cannot account for the increase in mortality in the general population. Surprisingly, these mutations have also been associated with higher rates of...
