Journal ArticleDOI
A quantitative assessment of plasma homocysteine as a risk factor for vascular disease. Probable benefits of increasing folic acid intakes
TL;DR: Higher folic acid intake by reducing tHcy levels promises to prevent arteriosclerotic vascular disease and under different assumptions, 13,500 to 50,000 CAD deaths annually could be avoided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperlipidemia in Coronary Heart Disease II. GENETIC ANALYSIS OF LIPID LEVELS IN 176 FAMILIES AND DELINEATION OF A NEW INHERITED DISORDER, COMBINED HYPERLIPIDEMIA
TL;DR: The combined disorder was shown to be genetically distinct from familial hypercholesterolemia and familial hypertriglyceridemia for the following reasons: the distribution pattern of cholesterol and triglyceride levels in relatives of probands was unique.

Journal ArticleDOI
Werner’s Syndrome: A Review of its Symptomatology, Natural History, Pathologic Features, Genetics and Relationship to the Natural Aging Process

Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperlipidemia in coronary heart disease. I. Lipid levels in 500 survivors of myocardial infarction
TL;DR: The identification of hyperlipidemic survivors of myocardial infarction provided a unique source of probands for family studies designed to disclose the genetic origin ofhyperlipidemia in coronary heart disease.
