Award Description: The NHLBI portfolio of genetic association studies does not currently include a large, well-characterized study of South Asians, even though the burden of coronary heart disease (CHD) among South Asians is high and rapidly increasing. We propose that the the Pakistan Risk of Myocardial Infarction Study (PROMIS) will be a highly cost-effective addition to the NHLBI GWAS portfolio. We seek support for additional blood markers to PROMIS by assaying plasma biomarkers potentially relevant to atherogenesis, plaque rupture and%2For thrombosis.
