Maria Sabater Lleal: Happy to Share Our Latest Work Exploring the Genetic Determinants of PE in VTE
Maria Sabater Lleal, Senior Researcher at Sant Pau Research Institute, shared Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis‘ post on LinkedIn:
“Happy to share our last work in INVENT exploring genetic determinants of pulmonary embolism among VTE patients.”
Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (JTH) shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Susana Lozano-Esparza et al., adding:
“Genetic associations with pulmonary embolism among those with a deep vein thrombosis: the INVENT Consortium
Why some deep vein thromboses embolize to the lungs and others don’t may be partly genetic.
In a case-only meta-analysis of 126,316 people with VTE across 29 studies, four variants distinguished PE from isolated DVT, including factor V Leiden (which was protective against PE) and variants near FGG and F11. A polygenic score tracked with risk, though effects were modest.”
