CRP and myocardial infarction: Carriers of this minor allele have increased levels of CRP, most notably in a subcohort of Asian/Pacific Islanders, suggesting the existence of ethnic variations in the relationship between rs3093068 and CRP concentrations.[52] In terms of association with clinical phenotypes, a haplotype tagged by rs3093068, rs1205 and another SNP was associated with risk of myocardial infarction in a large prospective study;[53] whereas a small, case/control study failed to find a relationship between neovascular age-related macular degeneration and rs3093068.
