Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the 9p21 SNP association with coronary heart disease is modified by other classical or novel risk markers. METHODS: The 9p21 SNP (rs10757274) and multiple risk markers were measured in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study, and incident coronary disease events were ascertained. Effect modification (interaction) of the 9p21 SNP with risk markers was tested in Cox...
