Thrombomodulin Gene Variants Are Associated With Increased Mortality After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery in Replicated Analyses

Abstract: Background We tested the hypothesis that genetic variation in thrombotic and inflammatory pathways is independently associated with long-term mortality following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods and Results Two separate cohorts of patients undergoing CABG at a single institution were examined, and all-cause mortality between 30 days and 5 years after the index CABG was ascertained from the National Death Index. In a discovery cohort of 1018 patients, a panel of 90 single nucleotide polymorphis… Show more

“…Each intensity plot was then examined with manual curation of genotype calls. 12 Since single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays used in both cohorts were different, not all markers identified in the discovery cohort were present on Illumina OMNI1-Quad BeadChip used in the CATHGEN cohort. Therefore, we included imputed SNPs derived from IMPUTE2 17 using 1000 genome as the reference panel in CATHGEN cohort to match selected candidate SNPs between the two datasets.…”
