Abstract

Introduction: The aim of the study was to evaluate the contribution of genetic variants determining inherited thrombophilia to recurrent miscarriage (RM) in the Polish population. The following polymorphisms were analyzed: 1691G>A, 1328T>C of coagulation factor V, 20210G>A of coagulation factor II, R353Q (11496G>A) of coagulation factor VII, 667C>T, 1298A>C, 1793G>A of MTHFR.

Material and methods: A total of 359 women with ≥ 2 subsequent recurrent miscarriages (303 < 13 weeks of gestation (w.g.) and 56 between 13–22 w.g.) and 400 healthy controls were included in the study. Frequency of the genetic polymor­phisms was determined with the PCR/RFLP method.

Results: Higher frequency of the 20210GA genotype was found in the RM < 13 w.g. (2.97 vs. 1.50% in controls, OR = 2.01, ns) and the RM 13–22 w.g. (5.36 vs. 1.50% in controls, OR = 3.72, p = 0.09) subgroups. Statistically significantly higher frequency of the 11496GA genotype was noted in controls as compared to the RM 13–22 w.g. subgroup (10.71 vs. 23.00% in controls, OR = 0.40, p = 0.02). Statistically significantly higher frequency of the 1793GA genotype was observed in the RM < 13 w.g. subgroup as compared to controls (12.21 vs. 7.75% in controls, OR = 1.66, p = 0.03). No significant correlations were found as far as the rest of the analyzed polymorphisms are concerned.

Conclusions: The obtained results suggest that the 1793G>A MTHFR, R353Q (11496G>A) factor VII gene and the 20210G>A factor II gene polymorphisms play a role in the etiology of RM in the Polish population.
