Someone just told that I can't add a clause in the "between... and..." Is it right? |

A+B=>C -- A and B correlate with C; the correlation of A and B (A plus B) with C A=>B+C” -- A correlates with B and C; the correlation of A with B and C (B plus C)
Yes, I cannot seem to compose a finite clause in the space between 'between' and 'and'. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

If I understand your intention, that would be a nonfinite clause:
The correlation of high salt intake and certain genes with the phenomena that most people living in Chicago have heart disease is not as perfect as the arguer assumes. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |
