“…The associations between restenosis risk and the analysed polymorphisms were analysed using the following genetic models: dominant, recessive and log-additive for PDGFB , EGF , TGFB1 and VEGF-A and dominant only for bFGF due to the low number of minor homozygotes. Similar to the methodology used by us [ 25 ] and others [ 27 , 28 ], these models were used for patients (n = 265) and adjusted for clinical variables that reached a p-value of <0.3 when comparing patients with and without significant ISR ( Table 2 ). Additionally, following the correction of angiographic data that reached p<0.3 in the group comparison ( Table 3 ), the effect of the considered polymorphisms on LLL (a continuous variable) was analysed.…”

“…Haplotypes will be examined based on single-nucleotide polymorphisms using the TaqMan 5' exonuclease genotyping assay. 32 However, because significant progress may be achieved in the field of genetic analysis in the coming years, the technologies existing at the time of analysis will be taken into consideration. Currently, the study of gene haplotypes of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system and the autonomic nervous system is considered.…”

“…The Chi-square test was used for determination of consistency with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). Clinical variables were analyzed separately from angiographic variables (265 patients and 322 lesions, respectively), according to the methodology used by other authors [10,11]. As the number of minor homozygotes for each of the studied polymorphisms was relatively low, the analysis of risk of ISR depending on the analyzed polymorphisms was performed based on the dominant model (major homozygotes vs heterozygotes and minor homozygotes).…”
