Although after we made adjustments for potential confounders (sex, age, the number of diseased vessels, cigarette smoking, and diabetes mellitus), the P value was at the margin of statistical significance (OR: 1.71, 95% CI: 0.87–3.39, P=0.122); our findings represent sufficient evidence to suggest the effect of the rs699947 polymorphism on adaptive collateralization in patients who have CAD.
