Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Statistically significant results found for the various QTs and SNPs were: rs3774933, rs230528, rs230521, rs1005819 and rs1609798 (intronic, NFKB1) with APOB; rs5361 (Missense, R greatr than S, SELE) and rs4648004 (Intronic, NFKB1) with FBG; rs4220 (Missense, K greater than R, FGB) with HCY; and rs3025035 (Intronic, VEGFA) with CHOL-H. SNPs in SELE, VEGFA, FGB and NFKB1 genes impact significantly on levels of quantitative precursors of CAD in Marwaris. 22116284 2011

0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Nevertheless, rs1800787 and rs1800789 SNPs in FGB gene seem to decrease the risk of CAD, even after adjustment for potential confounders (OR = 0.42, 95%CI: 0.19-0.90, p = 0.026 and OR = 0.44, 95%CI:0.21-0.94, p = 0.039, respectively). 20167083 2010

Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease LHGDN Our results suggest the absence of an association between the beta-fibrinogen gene -148C/T polymorphism and susceptibility to coronary artery disease and the possibility that -455G/A polymorphism (in particular, allele A) increases susceptibility to this disease in the Chinese population. 18726528 2008
CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE It has been suggested that the B beta-fibrinogen -455 G/A polymorphism is associated with erythrocyte hyperaggregability in men with coronary artery disease. 16525569 2006
CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We investigated the relationship between the single nucleotide polymorphism at position -148 in the beta-fibrinogen gene promoter (beta - 148C/T), blood fibrinogen levels, and risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in sufficiently large numbers of coronary disease cases to reliably address this question. 16870675 2006
CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We were interested in developing an automated, PCR-based genotyping assay for the purpose of exploring relationships between CAD and CAD-associated aortic stiffness and the Bcl I allele of the beta-fibrinogen gene. 11336400 2001
CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE However, the distribution of the beta-fibrinogen H1/H2 genotypes was not found to be associated with the development of CAD in either the < or =50 (p = 0.611) or >50 groups (p = 0.188). 11530961 2001
CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease

CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The role of the beta fibrinogen gene polymorphism and fibrinogen levels in ischemic stroke has not been determined in Japanese, who are more prone to stroke than to coronary artery disease compared with Caucasians. 9690809 1998
CUI: C1956346
Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Positive association of the beta fibrinogen H1/H2 gene variation to basal fibrinogen levels and to the increase in fibrinogen concentration during acute phase reaction but not to coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. 9241743 1997

Disease: Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We now present the results of a detailed analysis of the beta fibrinogen gene in relation to plasma fibrinogen and to the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) in the ECTIM Study. 8565160 1996
