All frequencies are presented as % (n/total sample number). Genotype and allele frequencies were analyzed using the Chi-squared test, or Fisher’s exact test in the case of low numbers. CTEPH: chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension; PTE: pulmonary thromboembolism. Thr: threonine; Ala alanine;
