There are some reports of warfarin dose regimens correlating with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) for CYP2C9, VKORC1 and other genes in adults. In children, however, reports are scarcer than in adults and the number of genes examined is more limited. We explored the effects of genetic variation on warfarin dose...
