title: Angiotensin-converting enzyme insertion/deletion polymorphism in angina pectoris with normal coronary arteriograms.
abstract: We investigated the relation between angiotensin-converting enzyme gene insertion/deletion polymorphism and syndrome X (angina with normal coronary arteriogram). The results of our study suggest that this polymorphism does not play a major role in the pathogenesis of microvascular angina.
