摘要：

Coronary artery disease (CAD) that becomes manifest in young adults can have devastating consequences. Additionally, the study of young patients with CAD may provide insight into the genetic basis of coronary disease. Over the past few years, our understanding of risk factors in this population has been expanded to include social, environmental, and emotional factors. The identification of genetic markers for disease is just beginning. Also, it has recently been shown tha CAD in young adults has a poor long-term prognosis, meaning that clinicians caring for these patients must be aggressive in risk factor control.
