Abstract excerpt
Warfarin is a commonly prescribed and effective oral anticoagulant. Genetic polymorphisms associated with warfarin metabolism and sensitivity have been implicated in the wide inter-individual dose variation that is observed. Several algorithms integrating patients' clinical characteristics and genetic polymorphism information have been explored to predict warfarin dose. However, most of these algorithms could...
