World distribution of factor V Leiden

TL;DR: Factor V Leiden was not found in any of 1600 chromosomes from Africa, Southeast Asia, Australasia, and the Americas, which may partly explain the rarity of thromboembolic disease in these populations.
Book

Sickle Cell Disease

TL;DR: Studies from past decades related to such translational research as the use of hydroxyurea in treatment, as well as the therapeutic promise of red-cell ion-channel blockers, and antiadhesion and anti-inflammatory therapy are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clasp - a randomized trial of low-dose aspirin for the prevention and treatment of preeclampsia among 9364 pregnant-women

G Beroyz, +566 more
- 12 Mar 1994 - 
TL;DR: The findings do not support routine prophylactic or therapeutic administration of antiplatelet therapy in pregnancy to all women at increased risk of pre-eclampsia or IUGR, but low-dose aspirin may be justified in women judged to be especially liable to early-onset pre- eClampsia severe enough to need very preterm delivery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global distribution of the CCR5 gene 32-basepair deletion.

TL;DR: It is found that Δccr5 is not confined to people of European descent but is found at frequencies of 2–5% throughout Europe, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent, but these most likely represent recent European gene flow into the indigenous populations.
