Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to explore the association between coronary artery disease and genetic polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) pathway. In addition, we examined the interactions between demographic and lifestyle risk factors (environmental factors including age, sex, smoking status, alcohol intake) and RAAS polymorphisms on disease risk. METHODS: A total of 1089...
