Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrent pregnancy Loss (RPL) is common problem affecting many couples. A certain genetic variants link to increase the danger of this condition particularly HPA-1, HPA-3 and Human Factor XIII Val34Leu Mutation. The present study aims to find an association between RPL and the Factor XIII Val34Leu polymorphism, as well as HPA-1 and HPA-3 in Sudanese women with RPL. METHODS This case-control study conducted between June 2022 and December 2022 included 216 women, with 103 cases having minimum three abortions in the past, and 113 healthy controls with at least two full-term births and no abortion history. DNA was isolated from whole blood and the status of three genetic polymorphisms (HPA-1, HPA-3, and factor XIII) was done using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Data was analysed using the SPSS version 24 software. RESULTS The A/A genotype was found to be more prevalent in cases (79.6%) and controls (96.5%) regarding HPA-1. A significant difference was observed in overall allele frequency for B allele (97.0%) and expected frequency of A allele was (81.1%) using the Hardy-Weinberg distribution (p < 0.001). The genotype A/A was most common in these patients (90.3%) and controls (100%), while B/B genotype was only (9.7%) in patients regarding HPA-3. Furthermore, the frequency of Val/Val genotype was higher in cases (88.3%) as compared with controls (90.3%). The risk of RPL in patients was nearly the same in Val/Leu individuals and controls group but all these differences were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Our results indicate a link between Human Platelet Antigen-1 (HPA-1), Human Platelet Antigen-3 (HPA-3) and Factor XIII gene polymorphism with RPL.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is affecting 1-4% of women who conceive approximately, and no cause could be found in more than 50% of women suffering from RPL. Inherited thrombophilias have got increasing attention in women with unexplained RPL, so we aim to explore the relationship among these most common thrombophilic polymorphisms and RPL through a literature review and meta-analysis. METHODS Observational studies from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science from 1997 to 7 April 2022 were searched. For each genetic variant, a fixed or random-effect model was used according to the heterogeneity test to calculate pooled ORs and 95% CIs for both dominant and recessive genetic models. Egger's line regression test was used to assess publication bias. The quality of the included articles was assessed by the Newcastle Ottawa scale. RESULTS A total of 124 articles comprising 17,278 RPL patients and 16,021 controls were included. Results showed that hyperhomocysteinemia (MTHFR) C677T (dominant model: OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.25-1.64; recessive model: OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.36-1.87), MTHFR A1298C (dominant model: OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.26-2.18; recessive model: OR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.42-2.26), PAI-1 4G/5G (dominant model: OR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.36-2.06; recessive model: OR, 1.80; 95% CI, 1.39-2.32), angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.00-1.53), Factor XIII V34L (OR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.02-1.87), and β-fibrinogen-455G/A (OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.02-2.51) were significantly associated with RPL. CONCLUSION This study provides potentially useful clinical markers to evaluate the risk of RPL or to help unexplained RPL patients identify possible causes, which may allow for targeted treatment.

Abstract
AIM The biology of recurrent pregnancy loss and recurrent implantation failure (RPL-RIF) is complex with multi-factorial etiology, with defective thrombosis being one of the most important and highly prevalent causes. The role of several thrombophilia related genes and variants associated with RPL-RIF is widely reported, and this study aimed to identify the risk associated with these genes in the Indian population. METHODS Next generation sequencing (NGS) was employed for the current study. NGS enables sequencing of multiple genes, identification of new variants, and establishment of genetic correlations with reproductive failure in diverse population groups. The present NGS based study evaluates association of twenty-nine genotypes of ten coagulation pathway genes (F2, F5, F13, MTR, MTRR, MTHFR, ANXA5, PROZ, SERPINE1 and VEGFA) with RPL-RIF in 540 female subjects - 474 patients with early recurrent pregnancy loss, late pregnancy loss, pregnancy complications in late gestation and recurrent implantation failure, with 66 controls. RESULTS The results emphasize inclusion of genotypes of seven thrombophilia genes (MTHFR, MTRR, MTR, ANXA5, PROZ, SERPINE1, VEGFA) for diagnosis of inherited thrombophilia risk for RPL-RIF in Indian population, as against the common practice of testing limited to F2, F5 and MTHFR genes. CONCLUSION Deriving risk magnitude from Combined Risk Analysis and interpretation of high-risk haplotypes are crucial components for evidence based personalized management such as selection of drugs and dosage, and prenatal or pre-implantation recommendations, for high-risk patients in fertility and obstetric clinics.

Abstract
Polymorphisms of coagulation factor XIII, an A2B2 tetramer, have been reported in correlation with venous and arterial thrombotic events. As there were limited data on these polymorphisms from Iranian population, we studied the correlation of factor XIIIA-Val34Leu and factor XIIIB-His95Arg with venous thromboembolism (VTE) in central Iran. Venous blood was collected from 102 unrelated VTE patients, diagnosed as pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism/DVT and 165 healthy persons as control group. Genotyping was performed from DNA for FXIIIA-V34L and FXIIIB-H95R by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Services software. There was no difference in age among the three groups of patients and between male and female participants. 41.02% of patients versus 42.04% of controls were carriers of FXIIIA-V34L as homozygous or heterozygous. Homozygosity of 34LL was significantly lower in patients compared with control participants (OR: 0.107, 95% CI: 0.14-0.83, P = 0.01) with only one homozygous in patients compared with 14 in the control group. Factor XIIIB-H95R was observed in 26.5% of patients versus 17.6% of control participants with no significant difference. There was no significant difference between patients and control group in homozygosity. Our findings on the frequency of FXIIIA-V34L is compatible with Caucasians. The significantly higher existence of homozygous 34LL in control participants is comparable with those who found it as protective against VTE. It may help to recognize risk factors or may contribute to prophylaxis in family members. We found FXIIIB-H95R polymorphism neutral. As there are different ethnicities in Iran, it may be beneficial to study other populations.

Genetic association between FXIII and β-fibrinogen genes and women with recurrent spontaneous abortion: a meta- analysis. J Assist Reprod Genet 2015; 32:817-25. [PMID: 25862345 DOI: 10.1007/s10815-015-0471-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2015] [Accepted: 03/20/2015] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND FXIII Val34Leu (rs5985) and β-fibrinogen -455G/A (rs1800790) genotypes have been reported to be associated with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). However, this topic is controversial. This study aimed to explore whether FXIII Val34Leu or β-fibrinogen -455G/A gene polymorphisms are related to RSA. METHODS In this analysis, PubMed, HuGENet and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were reviewed. Four models including the dominant model (Val/Val+Val/Leu vs. Leu/Leu), recessive model (Val/Val vs Val/Leu + Leu/Leu), co-dominant model (Val/Val vs. Val/Leu, Val/Val vs. Leu/Leu) and per-allele analysis (Val vs. Leu) were applied. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to assess the association between RSA and FXIII Val34Leu and β-fibrinogen -455G/A polymorphisms. RESULTS Nine studies with 10 sets of data were included according to the inclusion criterion. A positive association was detected in the pooled results for the dominant model (Val/Val+Val/Leu vs. Leu/Leu; OR = 0.417, 95% CI: 0.180-0.965, I(2) = 45.60%) and co-dominant model (Val/Val vs. Val/Leu; OR = 0.638, 95% CI: 0.452-0.899, I(2) = 36.40%) for FXIII Val34Leu polymorphisms. However, no statistically significant association between β-fibrinogen -455G/A polymorphisms and RSA was detected in the four different models, including the Asian and Caucasian subgroup analyses. CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis demonstrates that the FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism has a close association with RSA and women who carry the Val allele for the FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism could have a protective effect against RSA. However, no association is detected between β-fibrinogen -455G/A polymorphisms and the risk of RSA. Future well-designed studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Generally, recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSAs) have no identifiable cause; yet, vascular alterations during pregnancy may be associated with pregnancy loss. Therefore, we evaluated the association between thrombophilic mutations and RSAs. This case–control study was conducted in 112 patients who had RSAs and 98 health control women. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood, and polymorphism genotyping was conducted using polymerase chain reaction. The following 6 genetic variants were analyzed: factor V Leiden, prothrombin mutation, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T and A1298C, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (4G>5G), and factor XIII G103T (V34L). No correlations were found in any of the investigated polymorphisms. Moreover, 35.0% of cases and 25.5% of controls had at least 2 mutations in combination, and 4.8% of cases and 5.1% of controls had 3, but these combinations were not associated with additional risk. In conclusion, we found no association between the polymorphisms studied and the occurrence of RSAs.
