Statistical tests of SNPs in candidate genes. test and observed values show significant difference in MTHFR C677T, PAI −844 G/A, and fibrinogen-β chain −455G/A SNPs (). No SNP showed significant allelic difference between patients and control group (Fisher’s exact >0.05). The value lesser than 0.05 was the criteria for significance for all statistical tests.
