Thrombophilic Genetic Factors PAI-1, MTHFRC677T, V Leiden 506Q, and Prothrombin 20210A in Noncirrhotic Portal Vein Thrombosis and Budd-Chiari Syndrome in a Caucasian Population

Table 2

Frequencies of thrombophilic genetic factors (THRGFs), PAI-1 4G-4G, MTHFR677TT, V Leiden 506Q, and Prothrombin 20210A, in patients with abdominal thrombosis (AT) and healthy controls (HC). Frequencies in patients with portal vein thrombosis (PVT) and Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) are separately reported.
