Genes and Heart
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have emerged as the leading cause of mortality worldwide. In India, 1.7-2.0 million deaths are attributed to CVDs annually.1 India accounts for 1/5th of these deaths worldwide especially in younger population.2
The era of modern genomics has uncovered many genetic variations that predispose individuals to the risk of CVDs.1 Identifying the genetic risk can help put early screening and adopt a preventive strategy by making the possible lifestyle changes to mitigate the risk.
