Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Circulating levels of interleukin (IL)-18 are associated with the metabolic syndrome and risk for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study investigated the association between the circulating IL-18 levels and the -137 G/C polymorphism within the IL-18 gene with metab...
