Next-Generation Sequencing in Cardiovascular Disease: Present Clinical Applications and the Horizon of Precision Medicine.

The article discusses the application of next-generation sequencing (NGS) of the human genome in cardiovascular disease and its future in clinical practice. Topics mentioned include the use of the NGS in the diagnosis of Mendelian disease, the challenges associated with NGS in the clinical setting, and the need to expand genetic and clinical databases and develop precise disease taxonomy for the success of the application of clinical genomics.
