Fibrinogen genotype and risk of peripheral atherosclerosis.

Lancet (London, England) - 21 Mar 1992

Fowkes F G, Connor J M, Smith F B, Wood J, Donnan P T, Lowe G D

Abstract excerpt

There is conflicting evidence about the influence of fibrinogen genotype on plasma fibrinogen concentrations, and the relation between genotype and atherosclerotic disease has not been studied. In a population-based case-control study we aimed to find out whether certain fibrinogen genotypes are associated with an increased risk of peripheral atherosclerosis. 121 subjects with peripheral arterial disease and 126...
