The risk observed for A1298C was 2.28 and 2.12 times higher in variants (AC + CC) of both DVT and CAD (OR = 2.28, 95%CI = 1.09-4.75 and OR = 2.12, 95%CI = 1.02-4.40, respectively).
Thus, the aim of the present study is to determine the prevalence of FVL, MTHFR C677T and MTHFR A1298C gene polymorphisms in patients with DVT in central Iran.
Factor V (FV)-Leiden (G16891A)-, factor II(G20210A)-mutations, protein C- and S, as well as methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphisms at C677T and A1298C, and serum homocysteine levels (hcy) were determined in 29 patients with SVT and 26 with DVT.
Recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in a young man with Klinefelter's syndrome and heterozygous mutation of MTHFR-677C>T and 1298A>C.
We therefore compared the prevalence of factor V Leiden, prothrombin G20210A, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and A1298C, and plasminogen activator inhibitor 4G/5G polymorphisms between 50 patients with symptomatic DVT within 3 weeks after elective THA and an asymptomatic control group of 85 patients.
The prevalences of the C677T and A1298C genotypes did not differ significantly in 772 individuals with documented coronary artery disease (CAD), 137 individuals with deep-vein thrombosis (DVT), and 329 individuals without documented vascular disease.
