Abstract excerpt

We investigated common length polymorphisms in the hypervariable region located 3' to the human gene encoding apolipoprotein B (APOB 3' HVR) as part of the "Pathobiological Determinants of Atherosclerosis in Youth (PDAY)" study. PDAY is a multicenter study of young persons who died of external ca...
