Abstract excerpt
Coronary atherosclerosis is a complex and progressive condition that involves many biological pathways, including the oxidative stress and inflammatory response pathways. To investigate the association between common genetic variation within these two pathways and coronary atherosclerosis, we performed a comprehensive two-stage candidate gene association study in a Chinese Han population. In stage I, 936 tag...
