Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Genes related to endothelial function are responsible for the regulation of vascular functions. AIM: The aim of this study is to investigate whether endothelial gene-associated polymorphism and their plasma levels can be used to predict the risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE). METHODS: We studied 133 patients with VTE and 164 healthy controls. Endothelin (EDN) G8002A, EDN T1370G, EDN 3A/4A,...
