Haptoglobin genotype predicts development of coronary artery calcification in a prospective cohort of patients with type 1 diabetes

BACKGROUND: Coronary artery disease has been linked with genotypes for haptoglobin (Hp) which modulates extracorpuscular hemoglobin. We hypothesized that the Hp genotype would predict progression of coronary artery calcification (CAC), a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis. METHODS: CAC was measur...
