Risk of venous thromboembolism and myocardial infarction associated with factor V Leiden and prothrombin mutations and blood type
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
ABO blood type locus has been reported to be an important genetic determinant of venous and arterial thrombosis in genome-wide association studies. We tested the hypothesis that ABO blood type alone and in combination with mutations in factor V Leiden R506Q and prothrombin G20210A is associated with the risk of venous thromboembolism and myocardial infarction in the general population.
