Syrian gene study links heart disease to apelin system variations
NCT ID NCT05562687
First seen Apr 01, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looked at whether small differences in genes related to the apelin system (which helps control blood pressure) are linked to a higher risk of coronary artery disease and high blood pressure. Researchers analyzed blood samples from 223 Syrian patients, comparing those with heart disease and hypertension to healthy controls. The goal was to understand how these genetic variations might contribute to disease, not to test a new treatment.
