Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have found associations between deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a 4q35.2 locus that contains genes encoding factor XI (F11), a cytochrome P450 family member (CYP4V2), and prekallikrein (KLKB1). OBJECTIVE: We investigated which of the common SNPs in this locus are independently associated with DVT. METHODS: The study populations were the Leiden...
