Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a common, potentially lethal genetic disorder that is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This disorder is underdiagnosed and undertreated worldwide. Research published in this week's issue of THE LANCET concludes that, to identify as many people at high risk of CVD as possible, both molecular... view more... (2001-01-18)

New research confirms that natural selection is acting on the current human population
New evidence suggests that natural selection is leading women to have their first child at earlier ages. This is shown to be an inherited evolutionary change that is taking place despite the influence of social factors such as religion and education. The findings, by a team of British, Australian and American scientists, show for the first time... view more... (2001-04-23)
