Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: A mendelian randomisation study

Benjamin F. Voight, +140 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a Mendelian randomisation analysis was performed to compare the effect of HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and genetic score on risk of myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale association analysis identifies 13 new susceptibility loci for coronary artery disease

Heribert Schunkert, +166 more
- 01 Apr 2011 - 
TL;DR: This paper performed a meta-analysis of 14 genome-wide association studies of coronary artery disease (CAD) comprising 22,233 individuals with CAD (cases) and 64,762 controls of European descent followed by genotyping of top association signals in 56,682 additional individuals.

Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: a mendelian randomisation study

Benjamin F. Voight, +125 more
TL;DR: Mendelian randomisation analyses challenge the concept that raising of plasma HDL cholesterol will uniformly translate into reductions in risk of myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association of early-onset myocardial infarction with single nucleotide polymorphisms and copy number variants.

Sekar Kathiresan, +118 more
- 08 Feb 2009 - 
TL;DR: SNPs at nine loci were reproducibly associated with myocardial infarction, but tests of common and rare CNVs failed to identify additional associations with my Cardiovascular Infarction risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

A common mutation in the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene affects genomic DNA methylation through an interaction with folate status

TL;DR: The results indicate that the MTHFR C677T polymorphism influences DNA methylation status through an interaction with folate status, and is known to be solely represented in those individuals.
