Resumen:
|
A study of chronic mountain sickness (CMS) with a candidate gene--vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA)--was carried out in a Peruvian population living at high altitude in Cerro de Pasco (4380 m). The study was performed by genotyping of 11 tag SNPs encompassing 2.2 kb of region of VEGFA gene in patients with a diagnosis of CMS (n = 131; 49.1 +/- 12.7 years old) and unrelated healthy controls (n = 84; 47.2 +/- 13.4 years old). The VEGFA tag SNP rs3025033 was found associated with CMS (p 0.36, p
