Abstract excerpt
The influence of variation in the genes for cholesteryl ester transfer protein and apolipoprotein A-I was investigated in 95 patients with coronary heart disease and 95 matched control subjects of South East Asian extraction. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) linked to the cholest...
