In the present study, a case–control design (consisting of 1,146 cases with 1,146 age- and sex- frequency matched controls) was adopted and two SNPs rs11722228 (intron in SLC2A9) and rs4148152 (intron in ABCG2), which were in the previously reported uric acid related loci and confirmed in our GWAS [32,35,36], were selected to examine their associations with the CHD risk among Chinese. Here, SLC2A9 is linked to coronary artery disorder.
