“…The frequencies of the HindIII (TT, 45.1; TG, 35.8 and GG, 19%) and PvuII genotypes (TT, 39.4; TG, 42.7 and CC, 15.5%) in the present study were similar to those found in different ethnic groups, including Northern Europeans (7), Caucasians (25), Russians (26) and Tunisians (27). The allele frequencies of PvuII (C) and HindIII (G) in this study were similar to those found in other Caucasian populations.…”

“…Such differences may affect the results of association studies conducted in different populations. Rebhi et al (27) reported that the CTGTAA haplotype was significantly more common among patients with significant coronary stenosis than among controls. However, the CGGGAA haplotype occurred significantly more frequently in the control group compared to the coronary stenosis group.…”

“…In all these studies, LPL gene variants were associated with dyslipidemia. [27][28][29] The S447X variant has a different function relevant to the lipid profile. 30 However, the major function of the S447X variant is TG hydrolysis.…”

“…42 Additionally, Muñoz-Barrios reported that the genotype T/T of HindIII was associated with increase of total cholesterol (β =23.6 mg/mL; p=0.03), 43 while Rebhi et al referred to a significant association between the genotype of the HindIII polymorphism and lower HDL-C and TG levels. 44 Reports on the association between lipid variables and the HindIII polymorphism have been controversial. 45 Several studies have reported a significant association between the HindIII(+) allele and higher TG or lower HDL-C levels, [46][47][48] findings not in line with 49 There are also controversial results regarding the LPL polymorphism and obesity.…”
