Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms of endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) gene and the risk of Kawasaki disease (KD) in a Chinese children. Methods: A total of 103 KD patients including 23 patients with coronary artery lesions (CAL) and 158 controls were recruited. Seven tagging SNPs (rs6088738, rs2069940, rs2069945, rs2069952, rs867186, , and ) of...
