人们不久将用遗传筛分法来鉴别临床症状出现之前的高血压和动脉粥样硬化。在今后两至四年内,这类试验将投付应用。专家已鉴别出能指示高血压病以及动脉粥样硬化高发危险的遗传标志物。另外,也在红细胞上发现了高血压病的生物化学识别标志。这两项发现均在美国心脏研究协会的研讨会上通过了鉴定。 Genetic screening will soon be used to identify hypertension and atherosclerosis before clinical symptoms appear. In the next two to four years, such tests will be put into application. Experts have identified genetic markers that indicate hypertension and the high risk of developing atherosclerosis. In addition, biochemical markers of hypertension are also found on erythrocytes. Both findings were validated at the American Heart Association’s Symposium.
