摘要
Meta-analyses and large population-based studies have linked shorter body height with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). This complex association is now confirmed at the gene level, indicating that genetic variants affecting body height and associated with short stature seem to have independent roles as risk factors for CHD.
