Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Kawasaki disease (KD) is the commonest systemic vasculitis in children. It predisposes to development of coronary artery abnormalities (CAAs). Thrombomodulin (THBD) gene polymorphism rs1042579 is associated with high risk of cerebrovascular diseases. However, association of THBD polymorphism (rs1042579) and plasma thrombomodulin (TM) levels with susceptibility to KD and CAAs remains unclear. METHODS...
