Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Visceral obesity, the central core of metabolic syndrome (MetS), is conceived as the pathogenic basis of an increased cardiovascular burden and is related with changes in cytokines. We investigated whether IL-6-174G/C gene polymorphism is associated with MetS prevalence in hypertensive patients. METHOD: A population of hypertensive patients was included and stratified by the presence of MetS...
