This study aimed to explore the association between NPR3 single nucleotide polymorphism rs2270915 (A/G, Asn521Asp) and the risk of EH in a Chinese Han population by a case-control study.
The aims of the present study were to find new genetic markers in the 5'-flanking region of the NPRC gene and to assess relationships between variants and phenotypes of EH, including EH in obese patients.
