Cholesterol Ester Transfer Protein Taq1B Polymorphism and Its Association with Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients Undergoing Angiography in Yazd, Eastern Iran: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Several studies assessed the relationship between the cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) Taq1B gene polymorphism (rs708272) with risk factors of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, their findings were inconsistent.

Genetic Polymorphisms and Posttraumatic Complications [PDF]

Comparative and Functional Genomics, 2010
Major trauma is the leading cause of death in young adults. Despite advances in prehospital system and treatment in hospital, mortality rates have not improved significantly over the past decades. Victims of severe injuries who survive the initial hours have great risk for additional life-threatening complicaitons, including uncontrollable infection ...

Genetic polymorphisms and heart failure [PDF]

Genetics in Medicine, 2004
Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome. There is evidence for a genetic contribution to the pathophysiology of heart failure. Considering the fundamental role of neurohormonal factors in the pathophysiology and progression of cardiac dysfunction and hypertrophy, variants of genes involved in this system are logical candidate genes in heart ...

Genetic polymorphisms in Afghanistan

Annals of Human Biology, 1977
The gene frequencies in samples of two language groups from Afghanistan, comprising 104 Pushtu and 179 Dari subjects living in Kabul, have been examined for 24 loci. Some systems suggest greater affinity to the west (e.g. the MS gene combination, the esterase D2 allele), some to the east (e.g.
