Abstract excerpt

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are thought to be multifactorial in etiology. A variety of susceptibility genes have been associated, but definitive conclusions have been difficult to draw and are partly hampered by the small number of patients in each study. We undertook a comprehensive meta-analysis on any gene that was investigated in a case-control model of AAA. A comprehensive, genetic meta-analysis of all...
