Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms within genes of the renin-angiotensin system have been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. We investigated the association of polymorphisms in the angiotensinogen (AGT) and angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AGTR1) genes with increased intima-media thickness (IMT) and the presence of plaques in carotid arteries. METHODS: Subjects (1111) from the Perth Carotid...
