CHD in Chinese population is strongly associated with HLA-DRB1*01 and DRB1*04 haplotypes, and formation of CD4(+)CD28(null) T cells was related to HLA-DRB1*01, DRB1*04, and DRB1*15 alleles.
Coronary artery disease risk alleles downstream of CXCL12 are associated with plasma protein levels of CXCL12 and appear to be related to CXCL12 transcript levels in two human cell lines.
Coronary artery disease is associated with higher epicardial retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) and lower glucose transporter (GLUT) 4 levels in epicardial and subcutaneous adipose tissue.
Coronary artery disease predisposing haplogroup I of the Y chromosome is associated with downregulation of UTY and PRKY genes in macrophages but not with conventional cardiovascular risk factors.
Coronary heart disease (CHD) genetic tests are increasingly available through direct-to-consumer marketing, but their potential clinical impact on cardiovascular risk assessment is unclear.
CHD was diagnosed among 114 residents (60.3%) but only 60.5% of them were treated with aspirin (ASA), 45.6% with beta-blockers (BBs), 60.5% with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), and 24.6% with statins.
Coronary artery disease is the most common cause of death globally and is linked to a number of risk factors including serum low density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein, triglycerides and lipoprotein(a).
Coronary heart disease risk correlates directly with plasma concentrations of lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), a low-density lipoprotein-like particle distinguished by the presence of the glycoprotein apolipoprotein(a) (apo(a)), which is bound to apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) by disulfide bridges.

Coronary heart disease is related to sudden death caused by multi-factors and a major threat to human health.This study explores the role of OX40L and ICAM-1 in the stability of coronary plaques and their relationship with sudden coronary death.

Coronary heart disease was more common in MODY3 than in IDDM (16 vs 4.5%; p < 0.02) but less common than in the older NIDDM patients (33.3%; p < 0.02).
