Abstract
A total of 350 (184 males and 166 females) adults participated in the study. A sample of 138 individuals was selected randomly for genotyping. The synergistic effect of ACE (I/D) and ApoE (HhaI) on metabolic syndrome (MS) showed that individuals with e4/4+D/D combination had the highest occurrence of metabolic abnormalities.
