Brief Summary

The vitamin K antagonists (VKA) are necessary drugs of prevention and treatment of thrombo-embolic disease. The AVKAL study assesses the impact of VKA treatment on the aortic calcifications development. This is a biomedical research without health product, transversal and monocentric study which compares the aortic calcifications levels of two populations : one treated by VKA and the other which has never been treated by VKA.

Biospecimen

Retention: SAMPLES WITH DNA

A tube of blood on EDTA tubes of 6 ml will be taken at the elbow to the Clinical Research Center and then frozen at -80 ° . At the end of the study the tubes of all patients will be routed to VetAgro Sup Lyon in dry ice. DNA will be extracted from EDTA tubes . It will be stored frozen in the laboratory until analysis of polymorphisms of interest, by PCR technique . The promoter and the coding sequence of VKORC1 will be amplified by PCR and sequenced to detect the possible presence of SNPs
