As a result, noncommunicable diseases, includ ing genetic disorders, have achieved considerable importance in public health. Furthermore, it is now evident that inherited predisposition is important in a number of common diseases that occur in later life, such as atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and in some rheumatic, oncological, and mental illnesses that appear at an early stage and develop into severe handicaps in predisposed people. Rapid advances in gene mapping concerned with international human genome research make it almost certain that the use of new genetic knowledge will dramatically increase the requirement for genetic approaches in the control of a wide spectrum of diseases, and will provide possibilities for their prevention and treatment in the form of changes in lifestyle, diet modification, periodic check-ups, or the administration of gene therapy. It appears that one of the main problems in delivering genet | 出版日期 | Book 1996 | 关键词 | DNA; DNA analysis; DNA-Analyse; Präventivmedizin; cancer; ethics; gene therapy; genes; genetics; genome; human | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-61028-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-64662-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-61028-8 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1996 |
