Familial Clustering of Factor VIII and von Willebrand Factor Levels

1998-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Summary Recently, we found that high levels of clotting factor VIII (>150 IU/dl) are common and make an important contribution to thrombotic risk. The determinants of high factor VIII:C are unclear and might be partly genetic. Therefore, we tested the influence of age, blood group and von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels on factor VIII:C levels, and investigated whether factor VIII:C levels are genetically determine...
