Abstract excerpt
We examined the role of hepatic nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF1a) gene polymorphism on coronary artery disease (CAD) traits in 4631 Saudi angiographed individuals (2419 CAD versus 2212 controls) using TaqMan assay on ABI Prism 7900HT sequence detection system. Following adjustment for confounders, the rs2259820_CC (1.19 (1.01-1.42); P = 0.041), rs2464196_TT (1.19 (1.00-1.40); P = 0.045), and rs2259816_T (1.13...
