Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Carotid artery plaque is an established marker of subclinical atherosclerosis and common patho-mechanisms with coronary artery disease (CAD) are hypothesized. We aimed to identify genetic variants associated with carotid plaque and to examine the potential shared genetic basis with CAD. METHODS: After investigating the reliability of plaque detection, we performed a genome-wide...
