Prevalence of factor V Leiden, prothrombin and methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase mutations in women with adverse pregnancy outcomes in Lebanon
Article Abstract:
The prevalence of factor V Leiden, prothrombin, and methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene mutations in Lebanese women with adverse pregnancy outcomes is compared with women who had normal pregnancies. No association is observed between prevalence of factor V Leiden, prothrombin and MTHFR gene mutations and adverse pregnancy outcomes in the otherwise healthy Lebanese women.
