The relationship between the 4 polymorphisms and platelet deposition was analyzed by using a stepwise multiple linear regression analysis. This relationship was determined by adjusting other important blood parameters susceptible to influence platelet thrombus formation (ie, individual platelet count, white blood cell count, hematocrit, fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor plasma levels). GP, glycoprotein; VNTR, variable number of tandem repeat; NS = not significant. Mean ± SD.
