Characteristics of male and female athletes and athletes with, or without the Asp allele.

In this age matched population of elite athletes with a similar social and ethnic background linear regression analysis revealed that both male gender and the presence of the Asp allele are independent predictors for higher resting right ventricular stroke volume index (RVSVi) and right ventricular mass index (RVMi) values.
‡ p<0.001 vs women,
# p<0.001 vs Aspartate carriers.
