CYP2C9 Variant genotype includes one or more (*2, *3, *5, *6 and *11) alleles.

Variant VKORC11173C/T includes ‘TT or CT

All models adjusted for age, gender, BMI, CYP2C9, VKOR1173C/T, interaction between CYP2C9*VKOR1173C/T, number of comorbid conditions, vitamin K intake, drug interactions (e.g amiodarone), clinic site, education, income, indication, insurance and current smoking.

*

Models adjusted for Vscore, the variance growth rate, a measure of INR variability up to the preceding visit was also included in analyses of time to stable dosing and time to INR >4.

$

Models adjusted for correlation between repeat episodes of INR>4 within the patient

**$

Median time to stabilization (95 days, Intraquartile range 42–175 days) was used to assess genotype related risk of over-anticoagulation. Analyses based on individual time to stabilization could not be conducted due to model non-convergence on stratification by race among African Americans.
