چکیده
conclusions the prevalence of both fv and fii variants are population based. iran is an ethnically diverse country. therefore, for a comprehensive analysis of a potential association of fv and/or fii mutations with stroke among iranian population, epidemiological studies could be conducted among different ethnic groups. patients and methods the study population consisted of 153 patients of different stroke subtypes (except cryptogenic strokes), admitted to ghaem hospital, mashhad, iran. the control group included 153 age- and sex-matched subjects without a history of cerebrovascular or neurologic diseases. mutations of fv and fii were determined by using a taqman snp genotyping technique. the chi-square and exact fisher tests were used to analyze the baseline characteristics. results were as follows: the calculated p-value for sex and diabetes mellitus were 0.907 and 1.000, respectively. the case and control groups were also matched in low density lipoprotein (p = 0.816), high density lipoprotein (p = 0.323), triglyceride (p = 0.846), and total cholesterol (p = 0.079). results analysis of the fv showed that none of the study subjects were aa homozygous for this mutation and only 6 heterozygous subjects were detected in the case and control groups. regarding fii variants, none of the study subjects were ag heterozygous and only 1 aa homozygous was detected in the control group. background epidemiological studies indicate that over the past forty years, the stroke incidence rates has increased. factors v and ii mutations are established genetic-variant risk factors for venous thrombosis; however, their contribution to stroke is a controversial issue. objectives this study aimed to investigate the potential association of fv and fii mutations with stroke in an iranian population.

The Association of Coagulation Factor V (Leiden) and Factor II (Prothrombin) Mutations With Stroke
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies indicate that over the past forty years, the stroke incidence rates has increased. Factors V and II mutations are established genetic-variant risk factors for venous thrombosis; however, their contribution to stroke is a controversial issue. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the potential association of FV and FII mutations with stroke in an Iranian...
متن کاملThe Association between Preeclampsia and Defined Polymorphisms in Prothrombin and Coagulation Factor V Genes
Background & Aims: Preeclampsia is one of the complications of pregnancy and a major cause of maternal mortality. Since, hypercoagulation is one of the risk factors, defined polymorphisms of V and II coagulation factors (G1691A and G20210A) may increase the risk of the disease. Methods: This investigation was performed on blood samp...
متن کاملFrequency 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, 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 کاملFrequency of Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin Polymorphism in South of Iran
Normal hemostasis requires balanced regulation of prothrombotic and antithrombotic factors. Inherited alteration of factor V and prothrombin gene, the G20210A mutation, increases the resistance of factor V to degradation and booster production of prothrombin respectively. These alterations can increase hypercoagulability leading to thrombotic consequences. We aimed to assess the frequencies of ...
متن کاملFrequency of Factor II G20210A and Factor V Leiden Mutations in Algerian Patients with Venous Thromboembolism
Several inherited polymorphisms are associated with the risk of venous thrombosis, including mutation at codon 506 of the factor V gene and mutation at position 20210 of the prothrombin gene. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of factor II G20210A and factor V Leiden mutations in Algerian patients with venous thromboembolism disease. In this study, genotyping for factor V Leid...
