Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The chromosomal loci 9p21.3, 6q25.1, and 2q36.3, represented by their respective leading variants rs1333049, rs6922269 and rs2943634, have been linked with a history of coronary artery disease (CAD) by genome-wide association studies. Whereas the association of variant rs1333049 with CAD was analysed in several subsequent studies, replication studies of variants rs6922269 and are missing....
