An EPAS1 Haplotype Is Associated With High Altitude Polycythemia in Male Han Chinese at the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Conclusions Carriers of this EPAS1 haplotype (G-G-G, rs13419896, rs4953354, and rs1868092) may have a higher risk for HAPC. These results may contribute to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of HAPC in the Han population.
