TL;DR: A three-stage analysis of genome-wide SNP data in 1,222 German individuals with myocardial infarction and 1,298 controls is presented and suggestive association with a locus on 12q24.31 near HNF1A-C12orf43 is identified.

TL;DR: The SLC22A3-LPAL2-LPA gene cluster is identified as a strong susceptibility locus for coronary artery disease through a genome-wide haplotype association (GWHA) study and may have wide utility for analyzing GWA data for other complex traits.
