Abstract excerpt
The macrovascular complications of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are related to the features of insulin resistance (IR). High Factor VII:C (FVII:C) levels are associated with increased cardiovascular risk and relate to a base change in the FVII gene detected by Msp I endonuclease, and also to an insertion polymorphism in the promoter region. To examine the association between FVII:C levels,...
