Abstract excerpt
Thrombophilic mutations increase the tendency toward thromboembolic disease. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of the genetic variants related to thrombophilia among Saudis compared with other populations. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) genotyping was carried out to determine the polymorphic variants of factor V Leiden 1695G/A, prothrombin 20210G/A, plasmin activator inhibitor 1...
