<h4>Background</h4>Neuregulin-1 proteins are related to physiological correlates of Type A in terms of cardiac reactivity. Furthermore, neuregulin-1 gene (NRG1) may play a role in cardiovascular disease such as atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease i.e. the suggested "outcomes" of Type A behavior. Therefore, NRG1 is hypothesized to be associated with Type A behavior.<h4>Methods</h4>The study examined whether Type A behavior pattern is associated with the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) ...[more]
