Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: No reports are available on the distribution of the 20210 G-->A prothrombin variant among Middle Eastern Arabs. Additionally, to date, studies that attempt to establish this polymorphism as an independent risk factor or as a predictor for coronary artery disease (CAD) have yielded conflicting results. OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of the 20210 G-->A prothrombin variant among Middle Eastern...
