Although it has long been appreciated that there is a genetic component to hypertension, it is only recently that specific genes are being identified. This progress is part of a general advancement of our understanding of common, genetically complex human diseases. This understanding will eventually affect clinical practice.
虽然人们早就认识到高血压存在遗传因素,但直到最近才开始识别出特定基因。这一进展是我们对常见的、具有遗传复杂性的人类疾病理解的总体进步的一部分。这种理解最终将影响临床实践。
