Relationship between Long Noncoding RNA H19 Polymorphisms and Risk of Coronary Artery Disease in a Chinese Population: A Case-Control Study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are characterized by presence of high proteolytic activity, atherosclerotic lesions, extensive transmural inflammation and the presence of variably sized and shaped intraluminal thrombus (ILT). Therefore, we evaluated a possible association between plasma matrix metalloprote...
