Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the association of interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and to assess the impact of IL-6 promoter polymorphisms (-174G > C, -572G > C and -597G > A) on its plasma levels and their influence in the development of DVT in India. METHODS: One hundred DVT patients and 100 age and sex-matched healthy controls were study subjects. IL-6 polymorphisms were identified by...
