 Genetic trait may denote increased risk for early sudden cardiac death
Sudden cardiac death occurs when the heart beats in an irregular pattern that makes it unable to pump blood to the rest of the body (cardiac arrest).
Approximately 50 percent of all deaths caused by coronary heart disease are sudden and take place outside a hospital, but for younger people the figure is much higher, notes Mikkelsson.
Mikkelsson advises that individuals with a family history of premature heart death consult their physician and be screened for the known risk factors of heart disease.

Such a discussion of the evolutionary theories of aging is needed, and it may be particularly useful for students and researchers entering the field of aging studies.
Evolutionary theories of aging and longevity are those theories that try to explain the remarkable differences in observed aging rates and longevity records across different biological species (compare, for example, mice and humans) through interplay between the processes of mutation and selection.
If we take these figures as an estimate for age range in which the death program is switched on, we are forced to admit that such a program could not have arisen in human evolution since, according to palaeodemographic data, virtually nobody survived to such an age.
