Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the relationship of Lewis genotypes with major cardiovascular risk factors and the intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid arteries. Lewis genotyping included four major mutations of the Lewis (FUT3) gene at nucleotide positions 59, 1067, 202 and 314. DESIGN: Two complementary population-based cross-sectional studies. SETTING: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study. SUBJECTS:...
