Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis as a recurrent thrombotic event in a patient with heterozygous prothrombin G20210A genotype after discontinuation of oral anticoagulation therapy: how long should we treat these patients with warfarin?
A single-base change (G to A) at position 20210 in the 3' untranslated region of the prothrombin gene is associated with increased plasma levels of prothrombin and might therefore increase the risk for thrombosis.
Group 1: A total of 377 children with thrombosis were analyzed during 7 years between January 1997 and 2004 and screened for prothrombin G20210A mutation.
Molecular analysis of factor V Leiden, factor V Hong Kong, factor II G20210A, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T, and A1298C mutations related to Turkish thrombosis patients.
The results indicate that FV Leiden prevalence is quite high and coexistence of FV Leiden with other hereditary causes of thrombosis such as prothrombin G20210A mutation and MTHFR enzyme defect is not rare in healthy population of Aegean region of Turkey.
Pharmacological effects of a novel recombinant hirudin, CX-397, in vivo and in vitro: comparison with recombinant hirudin variant-1, heparin, and argatroban.
