Behind the pathogenesis of osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases
Over time the association between cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and osteoporosis has become more evident, especially as part of the aging process. At first the association of osteoporosis with CVD was considered as an artefact of aging, but it was revealed that after adjusting for age, the association still persists [1, 2]. Although several former and recent studies have indicated the strong as...
متن کاملMultivariate Methods for Genetic Variants Selection and Risk Prediction in Cardiovascular Diseases
Over the last decade, high-throughput genotyping and sequencing technologies have contributed to major advancements in genetics research, as these technologies now facilitate affordable mapping of the entire genome for large sets of individuals. Given this, genome-wide association studies are proving to be powerful tools in identifying genetic variants that have the capacity to modify the proba...
متن کاملAssociating rare genetic variants with human diseases
Citation: Zhang Q (2015) Associating rare genetic variants with human diseases. Genome researches have revealed that a large portion (over 50%) of genetic variants on human chromosomes are rare variants (RVs) with extremely low allele frequency (usually defined as less than 1%) in populations. In recent years, advances of DNA genotyping and sequencing technologies have been facilitating the dis...
متن کاملGenetic association of sequence variants near AGER/NOTCH4 and dementia.
We performed a survey of sequence variation in a series of 20 genes involved in inflammation-related pathways for association with dementia risk in twin and unrelated case-control samples consisting in total of 1462 Swedish dementia casesand 1929 controls. For a total of 218 tested genetic markers, strong evidence was obtained implicating a region near AGER and NOTCH4 on chromosome 6p with repl...
متن کاملGenetic Aspects of Cardiovascular Diseases in Animals.
THE occurrence of specific types of cardio-vascular disease in different species, breeds, and strains or families of animals is pertinent to a consideration of the role of heredity in these disorders. Variations in the types and prevalence of cardiac and arterial disease in different genetically related groups of animals are no,t explainable at present on the basis of environmental influences o...
