Abstract excerpt

The association between angiotensin-converting enzyme insertion/deletion (ACE I/D) polymorphism and risk of myocardial infarction (MI) has been extensively studied. However, the results were in controversy. This study aimed to explore the association between ACE I/D polymorphism and risk of MI by using a meta-analysis. We retrieved the following databases to indentify eligible studies: Medline, Embase, ISI, VIP,...
