Polymorphism of Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene (C677T MTHFR) is Not a Confounding Factor of the Relationship Between Serum Uric Acid Level and the Prevalence of Hypertension in Japanese Men

Background The association between serum uric acid (UA) and the prevalence of hypertension, and the relationship between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphism and hypertension remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the C677T MTHFR mutation genotyp...
