To determine the genetic risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE), this study examined 14 genetic variants from 10 hemostatic genes in 186 Taiwanese VTE patients and the same number of matched controls, which demonstrated FGA (encoding alpha fibrinogen) Thr312Ala polymorphism was the only variant significantly associated with VTE.
