D espite impressive progress over the past sev-eral decades, diseases of the heart remain the leading cause of death for US men and women, and coronary heart disease (CHD) accounts for the largest share of deaths within that category. CHD is particularly important in blacks due to the higher prevalence of major CHD risk factors, such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and left ventricular hypertrophy. Recent technological advances in the basic sciences provided unprecedented opportunities for new re-search to elucidate the pathogenesis ofCHD in blacks, to improve management and treatment, and, ulti-mately, to develop effective preventive strategies. To identify these new opportunities and chart a course for future research efforts, the Nat...
