Endothelial nitric oxide synthase is a crucial gene associated with coronary artery disease, owing to the important functions of nitric oxide in vessel protection and vasodilation. Three “Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms” were found to be significantly associated with CAD: ‘the 4a/b polymorphism in intron 4’, ‘G894T (GLU298ASP) in exon 7’, and ‘the T786C replacement in the flanking region’. This study aimed to explore the relationship between the '4a/b polymorphism of the eNOS gene', the 'T786C p
