Association between 1p13.3 genomic markers and coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis involving patients and controls
“Association between 1p13.3 genomic markers and coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis involving patients and controls”, vol. 14, pp. 9092-9102, 2015.
, Recently, genome-wide association studies on cardiovascular disease identified a series of associated single nucleotide polymorphisms in an intergenic region of chromosome 1p13.3. We investigated the association of this locus with cardiovascular disease in 13 case-control studies and undertook a meta-analysis for effect size, heterogeneity, publication bias, and strength of evidence. English and Chinese language articles were screened for the association of 1p13.3 single nucleotide polymorphisms with coronary heart/artery disease or myocardial infarction as primary outcomes.
