The latter as CVD risk factors are entirely the result of visceral
adipose tissue.

You are welcome, Tim.

All thanks and praise belong to the LORD, Whom I love with all my

Hello, I'm looking for a resource (review or other) which estimates how much of the variation in measurements of CVD risk factors is genetically determined, and which percentage could be accounted for by lifestyle. Risk factors I'm especially interested in are the inflammation markers such as oxLDL, IL6, C-reactive protein(, fibrinogen),... All info is welcome! Thanks a lot, Tim
