Abstract excerpt
To assess the risk of cardiovascular events, the diagnostic effectiveness of molecular-genetic markers (polymorphisms in APOE, ACE (I/D) and MTHFR (C677T) genes) in combination with conventional risk factors has been studied. The prognostic effectiveness of common algorithms (the Framingham scale) is not sufficient for evaluation of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. The combination of results of...
