The risk of venous thromboembolism associated with the factor V Leiden mutation and low B-vitamin status.

Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine - 1 Oct 2003

Abstract excerpt

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a multi-factorial disease involving numerous genetic and environmental risk factors. In this study we investigated the occurrence and the risk associated with factor V Leiden, hyperhomocysteinemia and low folate and vitamin B12 levels in young patients with thrombosis. We studied 78 patients (33 females/45 males, mean age 33 years) with a history of thrombosis in a lower limb....
