From 2008 to 2017, all 26 consecutive newborn infants ≥35 weeks of gestation diagnosed with neonatal CSVT, and their mothers, were tested for factor V Leiden (FV) G1691A, FII G20210A, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductaseC677T (MTHFRC677T) mutations.
The prevalence of the following genetic variants was determined: F5 c.1601G>A (factor V Leiden), F2 c.*97G>A (factor II or prothrombin mutation), F13A1 (factor XIII) c.103G>T, MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) c.665C>T and c.1286A>C, as well as PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor 1) c.-816A>G and c.-844G>A as markers of thrombophilia risk, and *2 and *3 alleles of CYP2C9 (cytochrome P450 2C9) and five variants of VKORC1 (vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1) as markers of warfarin pharmacogenetics.

While the pathogenesis of PE is unclear, it has been suggested that hypercoagulability due to Factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin gene mutation (FII G20210A) play a role in its progression.
The clot-based assay has limitations because of interference with coagulation inhibitors resulting in spuriously increased protein C levels or underestimation because of elevated levels of factor VIII and Factor V-Leiden mutation.
From 2008 to 2017, all 26 consecutive newborn infants ≥35 weeks of gestation diagnosed with neonatal CSVT, and their mothers, were tested for factor V Leiden (FV) G1691A, FII G20210A, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T (MTHFR C677T) mutations.
Our findings supported that PAI-1rs1799889 polymorphism may serve as one of the predisposing factors of VTE in both Caucasians and East Asians, especially in these with DVT and these with Factor V Leiden mutation.
One patient was found to be heterozygous for prothrombinp.G20210A disease-causing variant (5,8%) and two for factor V Leiden disease-causing variant (11,7%).
All participants underwent screening for thrombophilia-associated polymorphisms including factor V Leiden (FVL), prothrombinG20210A (PTG), factor V H1299 R (factor V HR2), factor XIII V34 L, β-fibrinogen-455 G>A, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 4G/5G, human platelet antigen-1 a/b, methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677 T, MTHFR A1298C, angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D, apolipoprotein B R3500Q, and apolipoprotein E (Apo E).
Compared to 111 VTE controls not taking TT (VTE-no TT), the 67 and 21 cases were more likely (<i>p</i> < 0.05 for all) to have Factor V Leiden (FVL) heterogeneity (24% and 33% vs. 12%), the lupus anticoagulant (14% and 33% vs. 4%), and high lipoprotein(a) (33% vs. 13%, <i>n</i> = 21).
Combined analysis of these polymorphism with factor V Leiden (FVL) showed that female patients with both, FVL and PARK2 polymorphism had even higher risk of VTE recurrence (HR = 4.49, 95% CI 1.58-12.75) compared to FVL or PARK2 polymorphism alone or both wild-type (reference).
Detected with conventional laboratory tests high-risk thrombophilia was present in 70 patients: deficiencies of antithrombin (AT) (n = 12), protein C (PC) (n = 14), protein S (PS) (n = 6), homozygous factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation (n = 9) and combined types (n = 29).
Although the Factor V Leiden (FVL) gene variant is the most prevalent genetic risk factor for venous thrombosis, only 10% of FVL carriers will experience such an event in their lifetime.
- To investigate whether this increase masks a diagnosis of factor V Leiden (FVL) or protein S deficiency in a "real-world" population of patients undergoing rivaroxaban treatment and hypercoagulation testing.
All participants underwent screening for thrombophilia-associated polymorphisms including factor V Leiden (FVL), prothrombin G20210A (PTG), factor V H1299 R (factor V HR2), factor XIII V34 L, β-fibrinogen-455 G>A, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 4G/5G, human platelet antigen-1 a/b, methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677 T, MTHFR A1298C, angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D, apolipoprotein B R3500Q, and apolipoprotein E (Apo E).
In the general population with a first-time DVT, Factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin G20210A mutation (PGM) are the most common types of HT with an incidence of 20% to 25% and 6% to 18%, respectively.
