Genome-wide association analysis and replication in 810,625 individuals identifies novel therapeutic targets for varicose veins

2020-05-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Varicose veins (VVs) affect one-third of Western society, with a significant subset of patients developing venous ulceration, and ongoing management of venous leg ulcers costing around $14.9 billion annually in the USA. There is no current medical management for VVs, with approaches limited to compression stockings, ablation techniques, or open surgery for more advanced disease. A significant...
