MBL2 and familial hypercholesterolemia: There were no associations between lipid profile and MBL2 haplotypes (total cholesterol: cases p = 0.66, controls p = 0.43; total cholesterol – HDL cholesterol ratio: cases p = 0.68, controls p = 0.14; triglycerides: cases p = 0.69, controls p = 0.16; frequency of hypercholesterolemia: cases p = 0.28, controls p = 0.60).
