Genetic testing in cardiovascular disease.
Genetic testing is increasingly becoming possible for diagnosis, susceptibility testing, and prognostication in cardiovascular medicine. The practicing cardiologist, therefore, needs to be familiar with the clinical utilities and limitations of genetic testing. This review explores the major approaches to genetic testing and issues in test interpretation. Specific applications to cardiovascular...

Recently, cell therapy has sparked a revolution in ischemic heart disease that will in the future help clinicians to cure patients. Earlier investigations in animal models and clinical trials have suggested that positive paracrine effects such as neoangiogenesis and anti-apoptotic can improve myocardial function.

متن کاملGenetic testing for Alzheimer's disease.
Genetic factors are important in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Familial AD can result from rare mutations in some genes. Other genes, such as the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE), operate as risk factors for late-onset sporadic AD. On a background of advances in the genetics of AD we suggest a way in which genetic information may be used in the diagnosis of AD. If there is a positive...

and moulding technicians as well as surgeons. Although it is reasonably straightforward to simulate anastomosis of hollow viscera, a much greater challenge faces design teams in creating simulated tissues for dissection and resection. The structure of surgical training in Britain is undergoing considerable change at present. Entry to a surgical career in the future seems likely to be preceded b...
