In addition, in the Li group, we observed enhanced hs-CRP and TNF-α levels in CHD patients and a higher apoCIII level in healthy controls compared to the levels detected in the Han group (P < 0.01 for hs-CRP and TNF-α; P < 0.05 for apoCIII) (Table 4). This evidence concerns the gene APOC3 and coronary artery disorder.
