The ACE gene is characterized by a polymorphism based on the presence (insertion [I]) or absence (deletion [D]) within intron 16 of a 287-basepair alu repeat sequence, resulting in three genotypes (DD and II homozygotes and ID heterozygotes). In 1992, the DD genotype was reported to be associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI). Subsequent studies have produced conflicting findings. To further evaluate the association of the ACE I/D genotype with MI risk, we carried out a meta-analysis of all the published studies.
