| pubmed-article:12186157 | pubmed:abstractText | The screening and therapeutic guidelines for the management of lipid abnormalities are reasonably well established. However, other risk factors like hyperhomocysteinemia (HCA) and single nucleotide polymorphisms involving the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and angiotensinogen genes, various clotting factors etc., have yet to be established firmly as other causative factors of atherothrombotic disease. Our study was aimed at finding the relationship between HCA, folate, vitamins B12 levels, and mutations in the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) genes. | lld:pubmed |
