Genetic basis of ethnic disparities in VTE risk.

Blood - 14 Apr 2016

Key Nigel S, Reiner Alex P

Abstract excerpt

In this issue of Blood, Hernandez et al identify and replicate single-nucleotide polymorphisms on chromosome 20 (and putatively on the THBD gene for thrombomodulin) that increased the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) by about 2.3-fold in African Americans (AAs) in the United States.
