Clinical genetics in cardiology [PDF]
The recent and rapid development of molecular genetics in cardiovascular diseases has created a new understanding of their pathogenesis and natural history, and also new possibilities for the diagnosis of these genetic disorders through genetic testing.

More on Clinical Renal Genetics [PDF]
Epidemiologic studies of rare diseases may produce surprising findings and raise ethical issues. This is illustrated in this study performed in 171,977 consecutive Taiwanese newborns (including 90,288 boys) from July 2006 through June 2008 by measuring dry blood spot and then leukocyte -galactosidase A ( -Gal A) activities and finally by detecting ...

Rare Genetic Diseases: Nature's Experiments on Human Development
Rare genetic diseases are the result of a continuous forward genetic screen that nature is conducting on humans. Here, we present epistemological and systems biology arguments highlighting the importance of studying these rare genetic diseases.

Genetics in Clinical Trials [PDF]
Clinical trials provide the ‘evidence’ in evidence-based medicine. Despite their cost and complexity, clinical trials save society billions of dollars [1]. Recent advances have enabled genome-wide analyses of single nucleotide polymorphisms in complex diseases. Such analyses require large sample sizes and thus depend on collaborative efforts.
