Abstract excerpt

Low folate and high homocysteine levels are emerging as important risk factors for atherosclerosis and predictors of early coronary heart disease. We evaluated folate and homocysteine levels, compared them with endothelial function, and analyzed their association with the methylenetetrahydrofolat...
