Abstract excerpt
Venous thromboembolism is a complex disease resulting from the interaction of a multitude of both genetic and environmental factors that can affect the cascade of biochemical reactions involved. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the genes that code for coagulation factors V (factor V Leiden) and II (prothrombin G20210A), as well as the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR C677T) gene, have been implicated...
