Abstract excerpt
Currently, the established risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) are largely environmental in nature. Conflicting studies have suggested that mutations in specific coagulation genes may also provide a genetic basis for CVD risk. We reviewed clinical studies that examined the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms in coagulation and platelet factors, and a biochemical factor to determine if specific...
