Association of insertion/deletion polymorphism of the angiotensin‐converting enzyme gene with angio‐oedema accompanying chronic urticaria but not chronic urticaria without angio‐oedema or the autologous serum skin test response

Abstract

The results of this study suggest no evidence of an association between ACE I/D polymorphism and risk of developing chronic ordinary urticaria. However, it can be a contributing factor to susceptibility of angio-oedema in chronic ordinary urticaria.
