Figure 1. HMOX1 (GT)n repeat distribution among Genetic Attributes and Thrombosis Epidemiology (GATE) study participants by race.
Allele lengths were scored as number of dinucleotide repeats and ranged from 13 to 45 repeats. ‘Small’ is defined as ≤25 repeats; ‘Medium’ is defined as 26–33 repeats; and ‘Long’ is defined as ≥34 repeats. Distribution of alleles is shown for A) 927 White and B) 883 Black patients and matched controls.
