Homocysteine and cardiovascular disease: evidence on causality from a meta-analysis.

BMJ (Clinical research ed.) - 23 Nov 2002

Wald David S, Law Malcolm, Morris Joan K

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether the association of serum homocysteine concentration with ischaemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and stroke is causal and, if so, to quantify the effect of homocysteine reduction in preventing them. DESIGN: Meta-analyses of the above thre...
