Our findings are consistent with the observation by Patel et al. [25] who reported ACE2 SNPs (rs2074192, rs4240157 and rs4646188) were associated with higher hypertension risk while rs1978124 was not in a diabetic Australian Caucasian population, and the study by Benjafield et al. [26] who reported that rs1978124 was not correlated with EH in Australian persons of Anglo-Celtic descent. The gene discussed is ACE2; the disease is Hypertension.
