Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: It is unclear whether lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A(2) (Lp-PLA(2)) exerts a pro- or antiatherogenic effect on cardiovascular disease (CVD). We investigated the association between Lp-PLA(2) variant (V279F and A379V) and CVD in Korean men. DESIGN: CVD patients (n = 532) and healthy controls (n = 670) were genotyped for the Lp-PLA(2) polymorphism (V279F and A379V). MAIN OUTCOME...
