Evolvement and progression of cardiovascular diseases affecting the venous and arterial
system are influenced bya multitude of environmental and hereditary factors. Many of these …

There is substantial evidence to indicate that the pathologic processes of venous and
arterial thromboembolism involve both genetic and environmental influences. Scientific …

Genetic risk factors predispose to thrombophilia and play the most important etiopathogenic
role in venous thromboembolism (VTE) in people younger than 50 years old. At least one …

Venous thrombosis is a multifactorial disease. Multiple interactions between genetic and
environmental factors contribute to the development of the disease. Presently, we know of …

A number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) have been linked to higher risk of
venous thromboembolism (VTE). We investigated the VTE risk associated with SNP s in the …

Genetic association studies have revealed a correlation between DNA variations in genes
encoding factors of the haemostatic system and thrombosis-related disease. This study …

Since the first systematic description of the pathophysiology of venous thromboembolic
events (VTE) by Virchow in 1856, genetic predisposition had been suspected to contribute to …

This article summarizes the genetic markers of human venous and arterial thrombotic
disorders. For venous thromboembolism, a factor V mutation (Arg 506rGln) has the highest …

We conducted a systematic and comprehensive meta-analysis on all candidate genes to
assess their genetic contribution to the aetiology of venous thromboembolism …

Haemostatic gene polymorphisms are potential risk factors for thrombosis. Considerable
attention has been focussed on identifying risk alleles. Progress has undoubtedly been …
