Values are mean ± SD. One-way analysis of covariance (with age as covariate) was performed to test whether genetic variation within the factor VII promoter was associated with differences in factor VII mass concentration (VIIag) and plasma levels of activated factor VII (VIIa). The percentage of genotype-based variation in factor VII levels was calculated according to Sing and Davignon.34
