In this special issue of the American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C, we focus on the "State of Congenital Heart Disease." We anticipate that after viewing this journal, the reader will be up-to-date on the epidemiology of congenital heart disease (CHD), the genetic basis of CHD, ethical concerns, and the global impact of CHD. And most importantly, we are confident that this special issue conveys the message that CHD is complex and that much work is still needed in genetic and genomic research.
在本期《美国医学遗传学杂志 C 辑》特刊中，我们聚焦于“先天性心脏病现状”。我们希望读者在阅读完本期杂志后，能够了解到先天性心脏病（CHD）的流行病学、CHD 的遗传基础、伦理学问题以及 CHD 的全球影响。最重要的是，我们相信本期特刊传达了这样一个信息，即 CHD 是复杂的，在遗传和基因组研究方面仍有许多工作需要开展。
