Genetic variation is only a minor contributor (< 20%) to the risk of developing Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD)
Ripatti et al. 2010 Lancet 376: 1393-400
Ardissino et al. 2011 J. Am. Coll. Cardiol. 58: 426-34

One risk factor for cardiovascular disease is the ratio of “good” (High-density lipoprotein (HDL)) to “bad” (LDL) cholesterol
