Study Summary
Cardiovascular disease (CVD), including heart disease, heart attack, high blood pressure, and stroke, is most commonly caused by atherosclerosis, or a hardening of the arteries. Traditional risk factors for CVD include age, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and smoking. Although these established risk factors can be helpful in determining people at risk for developing CVD, the addition of novel gene markers for subclinical, or suspected, atherosclerosis (SA) may enhance CVD risk prediction and understanding of disease mechanisms. This study will compare specific genes of white blood cells in people with significant SA versus people without SA to improve identification of those at risk for developing CVD and to better understand the biological basis of SA.
