The C825T polymorphism of the G-protein β3 subunit gene and its association with hypertension and stroke: an updated meta-analysis.

<h4>Objective</h4>Several epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between the GNB3 C825T polymorphism and hypertension or stroke. The results of these studies were inconsistent; therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to clarify these discrepancies.<h4>Methods</h4...
