Minimal genetic influences on plasma fibrinogen level in adult males in the NHLBI twin study.

Clinical genetics - 1 Feb 1994

Reed T, Tracy R P, Fabsitz R R

Abstract excerpt

Plasma fibrinogen was determined in 189 twins participating at the Indiana center during the third examination of the NHLBI twin study with a mean age of 63 years. Moderate heritability estimates were obtained from 44 complete MZ pairs and 39 complete DZ pairs. After adjustment of fibrinogen levels for age and other confounding variables related to cardiovascular disease risk, the maximum likelihood heritability...
