A Quantitative Trait Locus on Chromosome 5p Influences D-Dimer Levels in the San Antonio Family Heart Study by V. P. Diego, L. Almasy, D. L. Rainwater, M. C. Mahaney, A. G. Comuzzie, S. A. Cole, R. P. Tracy, M. P. Stern, J. W. MacCluer, J. Blangero

“…To better understand this risk factor, we performed a genome scan on 803 (301 males and 502 females) Mexican Americans in the San Antonio Family Heart Study (SAFHS). The SAFHS is ideal for the discovery of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) influencing CVD because CVD risk factors are prevalent in Mexican Americans of San Antonio and because the study design involves large families, which is optimal for QTL discovery. …”
