Abstract excerpt

AIM: We examined the hypothesis that there is a positive, independent association between polymorphisms of lamin A/C gene (LMNA) and arterial stiffness in Japanese. METHODS: The subjects were 261 men (mean age, 64.4+/-0.7 years) selected from inhabitants of the towns of Tanno and Sobetsu in a rural area of Japan who underwent medical check-ups. We conducted clinical examinations, including measurement of...
