Does the rs495828 polymorphism of the ABO gene predict enalapril-induced cough in Chinese patients with essential hypertension?
The rs495828 polymorphism of the ABO gene is associated with an increased risk of enalapril-induced cough in Chinese patients with essential hypertension, suggesting its potential as a pharmacogenomic marker.
