Analysis of SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) multiplex markers related to sudden cardiac death in Brazilian families

D. F. Braganholi and Cicarelli, R. M. B., Analysis of SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) multiplex markers related to sudden cardiac death in Brazilian families, vol. 14, pp. 14348-14348, 2015.

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a major public health concern worldwide, and genetic analysis may be useful in identifying the cause of death as well as in determining the possible genetic risk factors for SCD. This study analyzed eight SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) highly correlated with cardiac sudden death in samples (blood and bone) from six Brazilian families with a history of cardiovascular diseases. Individuals with no family history of cardiovascular diseases were recruited as controls.
