Abstract excerpt

Depression and cardiovascular disease (ischemic heart disease and stroke) are associated in a bidirectional manner. Their relatively high heritability has led to the hypothesis that this co-occurrence is related to shared familial and genetic factors; this study aims to test this hypothesis. We included 23,498 monozygotic and 39,540 same-sex dizygotic twins from the Danish Twin Registry followed from January 1977...
