Relationship of endogenous sex hormones to coronary heart disease: a twin studyKatharine H Mikulec
Department of Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California 94305, USA

The association between prolonged fatigue and cardiovascular disease in World War II veteran twinsAnnette L Fitzpatrick
Department of Epidemiology, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98115, USA
Twin Res 7:571-7. 2004..9-4.0). These data corroborate the association of fatigue with CVD and suggest that it is not influenced by a common genetic factor. Further studies are needed to clarify the relationship and to better understand the biologic mechanisms...
A bivariate genetic analysis of cerebral white matter hyperintensities and cognitive performance in elderly male twinsDorit Carmelli
Center for Health Sciences, SRI International, Menlo Park, CA, USA
Neurobiol Aging 23:413-20. 2002..We conclude from these analyses that common genetic influences explain to a large extent previously observed phenotypic associations between large amounts of WMHs and poor cognitive and physical function in the elderly...

Center for Health Sciences, SRI International, 333 Ravenswood Avenue, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA
Neurobiol Aging 28:1759-68. 2007..These results suggest that common genetic factors underlie longitudinal EF task performance. Genetic influences on EF decline, however, appear to be evident at longer time intervals between assessments...
Concordance rates and modifiable risk factors for lower urinary tract symptoms in twinsSabine Rohrmann
Department of Epidemiology, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Epidemiology 17:419-27. 2006..62; 0.36-1.08). CONCLUSION: The findings indicate a strong genetic component of lower urinary tract symptoms, but also support previous studies that modifiable environmental risk factors are associated with this condition...
