Using new tools to define the genetic underpinnings of risky traits associated with coronary artery disease: the SardiNIA study.

TL;DR: The principles that underlie modern genetic analyses are reviewed and several illustrations from the SardiNIA study of genomewide association studies for cardiovascular risk factor traits are provided.
Book ChapterDOI

Heart and Arterial Aging

TL;DR: Those individuals who maintain an physically active lifestyle, or who partake in exercise training later in life, can either ameliorate or delay some, but not all, of the cardiovascular alterations that accompany advancing age.
