ANOVA on blood pressure values after adjustment for covariates [age, body mass index (BMI), contraceptive pill, tobacco and alcohol] showed that lipoprotein lipase (LPL) Ser447Ter and glycoprotein IIIA (GpIIIa) Pl polymorphisms were significantly associated with BP in women (0.01 < or = P < or = 0.05), whereas BP levels in men were significantly different according to apolipoprotein CIII (APOC3) 3206T/G and -482C/T polymorphisms (P < or = 0.05).
