Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Various studies have described decreased serum angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity in patients with pneumonia. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of ACE in pneumonia by comparing ACE insertion/deletion (I/D) genotype corrected serum ACE activity and to establish whether the severity of the disease correlates with lower ACE activity. METHODS: This was a prospective...
