Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Caspase-3 plays an important role in the initiation and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF), but little is known about the role of CASP3 variants in the susceptibility to atrial fibrillation (AF). The purpose of this study was to comprehensively investigate the association between common genetic variants of CASP3 gene and AF in Chinese Han population. METHODS AND RESULTS: We investigated the...
