ATP-sensitive potassium channels gene polymorphism rs1799858 affects the risk of macro-/micro-vascular arteriosclerotic event in patients with increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels

Abstract Background Plasma concentration of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is causally related to the risk of arteriosclerotic events. Whether ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP) genetic variants predict increased LDL-C concentration (≥1.8 mmol/L) and risk of macro-/micro-vascular a...
