Identification of four gene variants associated with myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: It is found that four gene variants were associated with MI (P<.05; false-discovery rate <10%) and had the same risk allele as in the first two studies, which could lead to a better understanding of MI pathophysiology and improved patient risk assessment.
