Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Risk stratification of CVD patients may be improved by predictive biomarkers, including genetic markers. Elevated circulating vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) levels have been linked to CVD development. We explored whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the VEGFA locus on human chromosome 6 were associated...
