AB New methods of studying the human genome offer novel ways to examine the relationship between biomarkers and common, chronic human diseases. As an example, we will review a large genomics study (Elliott et al, JAMA 2009; 302:37–48) that concluded that C-reactive protein (CRP) is likely not a cause of coronary heart disease, although it is a marker for it.
