2014, Clinical BiochemistryCitation Excerpt :However, FVL's relation to CAD remains controversial. Several studies have failed to show a link between the presence of FVL and CAD [3,20–28]. In a large cohort study on 14,916 apparently healthy men the presence of the mutation was not found to be associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction or stroke [3].
Prevalence of resistance against activated protein C resulting from factor V Leiden is significantly increased in myocardial infarction: Investigation of 507 patients with myocardial infarction
2004, American Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :Our finding that there is a significant increased prevalence of factor V Leiden with resistance against activated protein C in a group of patients with confirmed myocardial infarction can be compared directly with other large studies individually. The biggest retrospective study,9 the multinational Etude Cas-Témoin de l'Infarctus du Myocarde (ECTIM) study, which included 643 patients and 726 controls, did not demonstrate an increased prevalence of heterozygous factor V Leiden in patients with myocardial infarction (OR = 1.1363). Subgroups were investigated in each city where the study was performed.
