The genotypes of the variants were identified by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism （PCR-RFLP） methods. Results 46 A〉G, 79 C〉G and 659 C〉G polymorphisms were common in the Kazakan population, but 491 C〉T was a mutation （frequency ofT allele was only 0.003） and only found in EH group. The fxequency distributions of genotypes and alleles for 659 C〉G between the EH and control groups was significantly different （P〈0.05）, while those for 46 A〉G and 79 C〉G polymorphisms were not statistically different. Logistic regression analysis suggested that the G allele of 659 C〉G polymorphism was a risk factor for hypertension （minor allele vs common homo; odds ratio, 13.240, 95% CI, 4.052-43.274; P〈0.05）. Covariance analysis showed that systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels in GG＋CG group of 659 C〉G were significantly higher than those in the CC group, but no significant difference of blood pressure were found between common homo and minor allele for 46 A〉G and 79C〉G polymorphisms. Haplotype analysis showed that two hyplotypes, HI： 46A-79C-491C-523C（48%）and H5：46A-79C-491C-659G, were associated with EH.Conelusion ADRB2 genetic variants may play independent roles in the molecular genetic mechanism of EH in Xinjiang Kazakans population （d Geriatr Cardio12010; 7：52-57）.展开更多
