HPSE and metabolic syndrome: Four thrombotic and four atherosclerotic gene variants were significantly associated with dyslipidemia and lipid profile; FVR (4070A > G) with higher total triglyceride (p = 0.004) and lower HDL (p = 0.030), F13A1 (V35L) and HPA-1 (a/b) with higher LDL (p = 0.047 and 0.024, respectively), MTHFR (667C > T) with total cholesterol (p = 0.004), and ApoE with triglyceride (p = 0.002) and LDL (p = 0.017).
