Abstract excerpt
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common disease with high heritability. However, only a small portion of the genetic variance of VTE can be explained by known genetic risk factors. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been associated with prothrombotic activity. Therefore, the genetic basis of NETs could reveal novel risk factors for VTE. A recent genome-wide association study of plasma cell-free DNA...
