Developmental Origins of Adult Cardiovascular Disease: Vascular Health in the Raine Cohort

Raine研究是一项独特的长期实验，收集了大约3000名27岁的澳大利亚年轻人的出生前和童年数据。我们计划测量其中1200名志愿者的动脉健康状况，并确定出生前后哪些因素会影响人类早期动脉粥样硬化的存在。这项研究将通过定义主要的风险因素来指导旨在早期预防人类心脏病发作和中风的策略。

The Raine study is a unique long term experiment that has collected extensive pre-birth and childhood data in ~3000 young Australians, who are now 27 years old. We plan to measure the artery health of 1200 of these volunteers and to determine what factors, both before and after birth, influence the presence of early atherosclerosis in humans. This study will guide strategies aimed at early prevention of heart attacks and stroke in humans, by defining the major risk factors.
