Further subgroup analyses based on type of disease and ethnicity of participants suggested that the rs2227631 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of coronary artery disease in the dominant (95% CI 0.71-0.94) and allele (95% CI 0.80-0.94) models, whereas the rs1799889 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of myocardial infarction (dominant model: 95% CI 1.09-1.57; recessive model: 95% CI 0.71-0.96; allele model: 95% CI 1.05-1.28) and cerebral infarction (dominant model: 95% CI 1.68-3.51; additive model: 95% CI 0.39-0.77; allele model: 95% CI 1.23-2.00).

Both single locus and haplotype analyses indicated that rs2227631 A allele and rs1799889 4G allele increased the risk of CHD among nonsmokers in Chinese.
