Polymorphism: mtDNA haplogroups



Variant Type: Locus

Factor:
- Symbol: mtDNA


Description:

Our results do not support an association of mitochondrial haplogroups with risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease, morbidity from other causes, mortality, or longevity in a large general population of European descent. Detailed OR information is as follows: U: 1.0 [95% CI, 0.8 to 1.1]; T: 0.9 [95% CI, 0.8 to 1.1]; J: 0.9 [95% CI, 0.8 to 1.1]; K: 1.0 [95% CI, 0.8 to 1.2]; V: 1.1 [95% CI, 0.9 to 1.3]; W/I: 0.8 [95% CI, 0.7 to 1.1]; Z: 0.9 [95% CI, 0.7 to 1.2]
