The frequency of the rs599839 polymorphism in the Chinese population has been reported to be higher in CAD patients compared with healthy controls (OR = 8.37, 95% CI: 1.70–41.0); in addition, CAD patients with the AA genotype display higher sortilin levels than those with the GG and GA genotypes (391.25 ± 128.24 ng/L vs. 314.70 ± 64.65 ng/L, p = 0.000) [27]. This evidence concerns the gene SORT1 and coronary artery disorder.
