Article Synopsis
- Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant cardiovascular disease influenced by both genetic and environmental factors, with high altitude (HA) increasing risk but lacking clear molecular understanding.
- This study investigated gene expression in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) patients from different altitudes and identified significant differences, revealing 378 genes at sea level and 875 genes at HA linked to DVT.
- Analysis highlighted pathways related to haemostasis and platelet activation, with "response to hypoxia" emerging as key; specific hypoxia-responsive genes might help explain the development of DVT in high-altitude conditions.

Hepatitis G virus has been associated with hepatitis and is transmitted through parenteral and sexual route.
