METHODS AND MATERIALS FOR ASSESSING A MAMMAL'S SUSCEPTIBILITY FOR VENOUS THROMBOEMBOLISM

摘要

This document provides methods and materials involved in assessing a mammal (e.g., a human) for a susceptibility to develop venous thromboembolism. For example, methods and materials for using a genetic variation in an ABO nucleic acid (e.g., rs2519093) to assess an individual's risk for developing venous thromboembolism are provided.
