Frequency of factor V Leiden (G1691A) and prothrombin (G20210A) polymorphisms in Population of Kerman Province, Iran
Background & Aims:Thromboembolism is an acute cardiovascular disease that ranges from clinically unimportant to massive embolism. Both acquired and hereditary risk factors contribute to the disease. We aimed to determine the prevalence of two hereditary predisposing factor of the disease, prothrombin G20210A and factor V Leiden (G1691A) polymorphisms, in Kerman population.<br /...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden G1691A and prothrombin G20210A mutations among Palestinian patients with sickle cell disease
Background Vascular thrombosis is an important pathophysiological aspect of sickle cell disease (SCD). This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical impact of factor V Leiden G1691A (FVL) and prothrombin G20210A mutations among Palestinian sickle cell disease (SCD) patients. Methods A total of 117 SCD patients, including 59 patients with sickle cell anemia (SS), 33 patients with...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden, MTHFR C677T and Prothrombin Gene Mutation G20210A in Iranian Patients with Venous Thrombosis
Background: Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin gene (G20210A) and MTHFR (C677T) polymorphism are the main biomarkers for evaluation of tendency for venous thromboembolism. We aimed to investigate the frequency of mutations in factor V Leiden, Prothrombin G20210A and MTHFR C677T and identify the genetic status for these mutations in patients with venous thrombosis. Methods: This study was carried out...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden and prothrombin gene G20210A mutations are uncommon in portal vein thrombosis in India.
BACKGROUND Extra-hepatic portal vein obstruction due to portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is an important cause of portal hypertension in several regions including India. The cause of thrombosis in these patients remains unclear. We studied the frequency of mutations in genes for coagulation factors V and II (prothrombin) in 61 Indian patients with PVT and 49 healthy control subjects. METHODS The ...
متن کاملRelationship between Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (C677T), Factor V Leiden (G1691A), Prothrombin Mutation (G20210A) and Severe Preeclampsia in a Brazilian Population
Objectives: To better understand the etiologic factors that can influence preeclampsia, we investigated hereditary factors for thrombosis, FV Leiden, F II 20210A mutation and the polymorphism C677T of the MTHFR, as singly and as in association, in a group of women from Ceará stateNortheast Brazil with severe preeclampsia. Material and Methods: We conducted a case-control study. 101 cases of sev...
