Abstract excerpt
Variation in the gene that encodes the vitamin K epoxide reductase subunit 1 (VKORC1) was recently proposed as a genetic risk factor for stroke in a Chinese population. In this ethnic group, only two common haplotypes were observed, with the C-allele of the polymorphism rs2359612 (VKORC1: c.283+837C>T) associated with stroke and other cardiovascular diseases. Recently, the influence of VKORC1 haplotypes on venous...
