Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To determine the relationship between high total homocysteine (tHcy) and self-perceived physical health, by investigating the associations between tHcy, the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677T polymorphism and physical health-related quality of life (HRQOL). STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a cross-sectional study using a cohort of 4248 community-dwelling men aged 70-88 years. MAIN OUTCOME...
