Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Moderately elevated levels of homocysteine have been associated with an increased cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetic patients. The role of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism is less clear. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated the contribution of plasma homocysteine levels and the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism to the variability of carotid intima-media...
