Abstract excerpt

Excess weight is a known risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) and a large percentage of overweight and obese individuals ultimately develop CAD. The objective of this study was to identify human genes associated with CAD in a subgroup of overweight and obese individuals using population-based association methods. Logistic regression analyses were used to test the association between single nucleotide...
