Abstract excerpt
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have reproducibly identified loci associated with plasma triglycerides (TG), HDL cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol. We sought to replicate these findings in a multiethnic population-based cohort using the curated single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) set found on the new Illumina cardiovascular disease (CVD) beadchip, which contains approximately 50,000 SNPs densely...
