To investigate the correlation between E670G polymorphism of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene and coronary heart disease (CHD), and contrastively study the regional differences of E670G polymorphism of PCSK9 gene between patients with CHD among the Han population in Hainan and three provinces in the northeast of China (TPNC), providing scientific basis for prevention and treatment of patients with CHD in different regions.
