Multivariable logistic regression analyses and stepwise forward selection procedures revealed that seven different polymorphisms were significantly (P<0.005) associated with MI in individuals with low or high serum concentrations of HDL- or LDL-cholesterol or of TG: the 190T --> C (Trp64Arg) polymorphism of ADRB3 in individuals with low HDL-cholesterol; the 1018C --> T (Thr145Met) polymorphism of GP1BA, the A --> G (Ile646Val) polymorphism of AKAP10, and the -55C --> T polymorphism of UCP3 in individuals with high HDL-cholesterol; the -603A --> G polymorphism of F3 and the -11377C --> G polymorphism of ADIPOQ in individuals with low LDL-cholesterol; the 1018C --> T polymorphism of GP1BA in individuals with low TG; and the 4G --> 5G polymorphism of PAI1 in individuals with high TG.
