Association between 1p13.3 genomic markers and coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis involving patients and controls

J. Guo, Luo, Y. X., Tao, L. X., and Guo, X. H., 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.
