DESIGN We evaluated the genetic linkage between quantitative measures from audiometric examinations and markers from a genomewide scan in a population-based sample ascertained without respect to hearing status. PARTICIPANTS Audiometric examinations were condu...
متن کاملGenome-wide linkage to chromosome 6 for waist circumference in the Framingham Heart Study.
While several loci for BMI have been identified, it is not known whether genes underlie the process of regional fat deposition. We sought to test whether waist circumference, a measure of central adiposity, contains a genetic component. Variance components linkage analysis was performed on 330 families from the Framingham Heart Study original and offspring cohorts, using a 10-cM genome-wide lin...
متن کاملThe Framingham Heart Study
Previous reports indicate that cardiac output is increased early in the course of hypertension. The purpose of this study was to identify with echocardiography hemodynamic features in normotensive adults that predicted the development of hypertension. Framingham Heart Study subjects were eligible for this investigation if they were normotensive at the baseline examination (systolic blood pressu...
متن کاملThe Framingham Heart Study
Background Sinking prebeta lipoprotein is a putative marker for elevated levels of lipoprotein (a). Although prospective data suggest that increased plasma lipoprotein (a) is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease in men, no prospective studies are available in women. Methods and Results From 1968 through 1975, sinking prebeta lipoprotein was determined by paper electrophoresis i...
