Single and Combined Prothrombotic Factors in Patients With Idiopathic Venous Thromboembolism
The inherited thrombophilias—deficiencies of protein C, protein S, and antithrombin III—and the prothrombotic polymorphisms factor V G1691A and factor II G20210A predispose patients toward venous thromboembolism (VTE). The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of single and combined prothrombotic factors in patients with idiopathic VTE and to estimate the associated risks. The study...

متن کاملThe factor V G1691A mutation is a risk for porencephaly: A case-control study.
This study was initiated to investigate prothrombotic risk factors in children with porencephaly. 76 porencephalic and 76 healthy infants were investigated for factor V (FV) G1691A mutation, factor II G20210A variant, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T genotype, lipoprotein (a), protein C, protein S, and antithrombin. Only the FV mutation (p = 0.005) and combinations of two or th...
متن کاملSynergistic effects of prothrombotic polymorphisms and atherogenic factors on the risk of myocardial infarction in young males.
Several recent studies evaluated a possible effect of the prothrombotic polymorphisms such as 5,10 methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) nt 677C --> T, factor V (F V) nt 1691G --> A (F V Leiden), and factor II (F II) nt 20210 G --> A on the risk of myocardial infarction. In the present study, we analyzed the effect of these prothrombotic polymorphisms, as well as apolipoprotein (Apo) E4, ...
متن کاملOutcome of kidney transplantation in patients with inherited thrombophilia: data of a prospective study.
Inherited prothrombotic risk factors predispose patients to thromboembolic events. In kidney transplant recipients, thrombophilia may manifest itself with venous thrombosis, microvascular occlusion, or acute rejection with major consequences for allograft survival. This is a prospective study on 165 renal allograft recipients to evaluate the contribution of genetic thrombophilic risk factors to...
