Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Apolipoprotein E (apoE) plays an important role in lipid metabolism. Three common alleles in the APOE gene, E2/E3/E4, have been associated with lipoprotein disorders but their effects on myocardial infarction (MI) risk remain uncertain. METHODS: In a prospective cohort of 14916 apparently healthy men enrolled in the Physicians' Health Study, APOE genotyping was conducted to determine three common...
