A Strategy for Genomic Research on Common Cardiovascular Diseases Aiming at the Realization of Precision Medicine

چکیده
Despite the development of genomic research on common cardiovascular diseases, genetic variants and/or loci shown to be disease associated have been seldom applied to risk prediction in a clinical setting, although they could provide us with novel mechanistic insights into the pathophysiology and potential therapeutic targets. Here, we discuss the significance and limitations of the up-todate genomic studies on common diseases and propose what kind of genomic research should be prioritized in view of the realization of precision medicine.

متن کاملZooplankton and their protective effects on cardiovascular diseases
In the world-wide cardiovascular diseases are the most common. And mortallities are high. Many modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases have been identified. One of them is diets. In diet polyunsaturated fatty acids such omega-3 and omega-6 have protective effects on cardiovascular health. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are essentials for humans, have taken from foods...
