In this cohort, the carriers of the rare allele of rs7903146 showed altered postprandial lipemia, with higher total cholesterol and Apo B, and a higher content of cholesterol, triglycerides and Apo B in small-TRL particles, accounting for a disrupted clearance of postprandial particles - which may be related to the greater severity of cardiovascular events reported for the carriers of rs7903146 [37]. This evidence concerns the gene APOB and hyperlipidemia.
