More than one in three people have genetic variations which raise ‘good cholesterol’ and may protect against heart disease, according to research published today by scientists at Cambridge University. The research was funded by the British Heart Foundation (BHF). Led by Mr. Alexander Thompson and Professor John Danesh, and published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), the research used data from 102 different studies and up to 147,000 people from across the world.    (source: admin.cam.ac.uk)
