Association of the rs688 Polymorphism in the Gene Encoding Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor in Bangladeshi Population With Coronary Artery Disease

Key Points

• To investigate the association between the LDLR rs688 polymorphism and coronary artery disease (CAD) in a Bangladeshi population.
• Conducted a case-control study
• Compared the genotype distribution between CAD patients and controls
• Focused on the rs688 polymorphism of the LDLR gene
• Identified an association between the rs688 TT genotype and increased risk of coronary artery disease
• Findings suggest potential genetic risk factors for CAD in the studied population
