Genes associated with VTE. Genes are grouped according to biological links to VTE: coagulation, anticoagulation, platelets, erythrocytes, inflammation, and unknown. Genes associated with major thrombophilias are marked in red. Question marks denote not replicated genes. TWAS shows that the gene was identified with transcriptome-wide association study.
