Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this paper is to explore whether the valine/leucine(247) (Val/Leu(247)) polymorphism of β(2)-glycoprotein I (β(2)GPI) confers susceptibility to anti-phospholipid syndrome (APS) and thrombosis and predicts positivity for anti-β(2)GPI antibodies. METHODS: A meta-analysis was conducted on the associations between the β(2)GPI Val/Leu(247) polymorphism and susceptibility to APS and...
