In the news: is it accurate information? The heterogeneous A/G genotype was present in 29.5% of patients with VWF and 0.3% of the controls (P<0.001), the researchers reported online in Clinical Epigenetics. "We therefore claim [that] genotype to be a risk factor for VWF, and that it may be used as a biological marker to facilitate the identification of risk populations who are being considered for exposure to potentially hazardous handheld vibrating machinery," they wrote. "This may prevent thousands of employees from experiencing physical pain and disability, in addition to long-lasting administrative fights for VWF compensation, which frequently end unsettled and in great frustration Voelter-Mahlknecht S, et al "Sirtuin 1 single nucleotide polymorphism (A2191G) is a diagnostic marker for vibration-induced white finger disease" Clin Epigenetics 2012.
