A common missense variant rs1800385 (Val1565Leu) in the gene coding for von Willebrand Factor (VWF) (OR=1.72, p-value=3.57E-4) and a low-frequency missense variant rs41314453 (Ala732Val) in the gene coding for a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13) (OR=1.97, p-value=0.044) were associated with preeclampsia. Here, VWF is linked to preeclampsia.
