A population study of ethnic variations in the angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D polymorphism

1 May 1999

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The presence of the deletion allele of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) I/D polymorphism is associated with an excess risk of vascular disease and diabetic nephropathy. OBJECTIVE: To examine the importance of this polymorphism as a determinant of hypertension and impaired glucose metabolism in a population-based study of three ethnic groups and assess the potential modifying effect of gender....
