That precursors of adult coronary artery disease,
hypertension, and type II diabetes begin in childhood have been clearly
established by the Bogalusa Heart Study. This unique research program has been
able to follow a biracial (black/white) population over 35 years from childhood
through mid-adulthood to provide perspectives on the natural history of adult
heart diseases. Not only do these observations describe trajectories of
cardio-metabolic risk variables leading to these diseases but provide a
rationale for the need to begin prevention beginning in childhood. The
trajectories of the burden of cardio-metabolic risk variables in the context of
their fetal origin and chromosome telomere dynamics provide some insight into
the metabolic imprinting in utero and aging process. The observed racial
contrasts on cardio-metabolic risk variables implicate various biologic pathways
interacting with environment contributing to the high morbidity and mortality
from related diseases in our population. To address the seriousness of the onset
of cardiovascular disease in youth, approaches to primordial prevention are
described focussing on childhood health education as an important aspect of
Preventive Cardiology.
