Comparison of the combined prevalence of tested genetic polymorphisms

Genetic polymorphism Observation group Control group Odds ratio 95% confidence interval p Value (Fisher’s exact test)
MTHFR* (%) 56 31 2.89 1.40–5.96 0.006
MTHFR* and factor V Leiden (%) 6 1 5.36 0.54–53.01 0.143
MTHFR* and PAI-1 4G/4G (%) 42 25 2.21 1.05–4.66 0.053
Factor V Leiden and PAI-1 4G/4G (%) 8 2 3.61 0.64–20.46 0.194
Prothrombin G20210A and PAI-1 4G/4G (%) 4 2 1.73 0.24–12.67 0.627

* Both heterozygous or at least one homozygous; significant; MTHFR = methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase; PAI-1 = plasminogen activator inhibitor 1.
