Hypothesis-based analysis of gene-gene interactions and risk of myocardial infarction.

Hypothesis-based analysis of gene-gene interactions and risk of myocardial infarction.

The genetic loci that have been found by genome-wide association studies to modulate risk of coronary heart disease explain only a fraction of its total variance, and gene-gene interactions have been proposed as a potential source of the remaining heritability. Given the potentially large testing bu...
