Smoking modifies the associated increased risk of future cardiovascular disease by genetic variation on chromosome 9p21.
<h4>Aims</h4>Genetic predisposition for cardiovascular disease (CVD) is likely to be modified by environmental exposures. We tested if the associated risk of CVD and CVD-mortality by the single nucleotide polymorphism rs4977574 on chromosome 9p21 is modified by life-style factors.<h4&...

The hazard ratios (HR) per risk allele of rs4977574 were highest in never smokers (N = 9642) for CAD (HR = 1.26; 95% CI 1.13-1.40; P<0.001) and for CVD-mortality (HR = 1.40; 95% CI 1.20-1.63; P<0.001), whereas the risk increase by rs4977574 was attenuated in current smokers (N = 7000) for both CAD (HR = 1.05; 95%CI 0.95-1.16; P = 0.326) and CVD-mortality (HR = 1.08; 95%CI 0.94-1.23; P = 0.270).
