Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the relationship between interleukin-6 promoter -174G/C (IL-6 -174G/C) polymorphism and insulin resistance (IR) in obese patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS: Twenty obese male patients with CHD were selected from a larger database of patients (n=606). IL-6 -174G/C genotype was previously analysed and only homozygotes with the CC genotype...
