myocardial infarction in a study of 2,000+ patients. This SNP,
rs10116277, is highly correlated (r
2=0.9) with
rs2383207, as well as
rs1333040 (r
2=0.67). Ultimately, though, the SNP in this study (and region) with the highest disease correlation is
rs10757278.
According to a DeCode report, the G allele of his SNP is associated with lower risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). [PMID 18176561]
