The death rate from coronary disease has been decreasing mainly due to changes in levels of risk factors, and improvement in CAD treatments. However, there are risk factors, whose prevalence is increasing, such as diabetes and obesity. When the risk factor profile changes, we can assume that gene profiles and epigenetics also ...
