The clinical expression of factor V Leiden varies widely within and between families and only a minority of carriers will ever develop venous thromboembolism. Co-segregation of thrombophilic disorders is a possible explanation. Our aim was to assess the contributions of high levels of factor VIII:C, factor XI:C, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) and lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) to the risk of venous thromboembolism in factor V Leiden carriers.
Levels of the four proteins were measured, in addition to tests of deficiencies for antithrombin, protein C and protein S, and the prothrombin G20210A mutation, in 153 factor V Leiden carriers, derived from a family cohort study. The (adjusted) relative risk and absolute risk of venous thromboembolism for high levels of each protein were calculated.
Of carriers, 60% had one or more concomitant thrombophilic disorders. Crude odds ratios (95% CI) of venous thromboembolism for high protein levels were: 3.2 (1.1-9.3) (factor VIII:C); 1.7 (0.6-4.9) (factor XI:C); 3.0 (1.1-8.2) (TAFI); and 1.9 (0.7-5.7) (Lp(a)). Adjusted for age, sex, other concomitant thrombophilic disorders and exogenous risk factors, the odds ratio for venous thromboembolism were 2.7 (0.8-8.7) for high factor VIII:C levels and 1.8 (0.6-5.3) for high TAFI levels. Annual incidences in subgroups of carriers were 0.35% (0.09-0.89), 0.44% (0.05-1.57) and 0.94% (0.35-2.05) for concomitance of high levels of factor VIII:C, TAFI and both, respectively, as compared to 0.09% (0.00-0.48) in single factor V Leiden carriers and 1.11% (0.30-2.82) for other concomitant disorders.
High levels of factor VIII:C and TAFI, in contrast with factor XI:C and Lp(a), are mild risk factors for venous thromboembolism, and substantially contribute to the risk of venous thromboembolism in factor V Leiden carriers. Our data support the hypothesis that the clinical expression of factor V Leiden depends on co-segregation of thrombophilic disorders.
因子V莱顿突变的临床表现在家族内部和家族之间差异很大,只有少数携带者会发生静脉血栓栓塞。血栓形成倾向疾病的共同遗传是一种可能的解释。我们的目的是评估高水平的因子VIII:C、因子XI:C、凝血酶激活的纤维蛋白溶解抑制剂(TAFI)和脂蛋白(a)(Lp(a))对因子V莱顿突变携带者发生静脉血栓栓塞风险的影响。
在一项家族队列研究中选取了153名因子V莱顿突变携带者,除了检测抗凝血酶、蛋白C和蛋白S缺乏症以及凝血酶原G20210A突变外,还测量了这四种蛋白质的水平。计算了每种蛋白质高水平时静脉血栓栓塞的(调整后)相对风险和绝对风险。
在携带者中,60%患有一种或多种合并的血栓形成倾向疾病。高蛋白水平时静脉血栓栓塞的粗比值比(95%CI)分别为:3.2(1.1 - 9.3)(因子VIII:C);1.7(0.6 - 4.9)(因子XI:C);3.0(1.1 - 8.2)(TAFI);1.9(0.7 - 5.7)(Lp(a))。在调整年龄、性别、其他合并的血栓形成倾向疾病和外源性危险因素后,因子VIII:C高水平时静脉血栓栓塞的比值比为2.7(0.8 - 8.7),TAFI高水平时为1.8(0.6 - 5.3)。携带者亚组中,因子VIII:C、TAFI高水平以及两者均高水平时的年发病率分别为0.35%(0.09 - 0.89)、0.44%(0.05 - 1.57)和0.94%(0.35 - 2.05),而单纯因子V莱顿突变携带者的年发病率为0.09%(0.00 - 0.48),其他合并疾病者为1.11%(0.30 - 2.82)。
与因子XI:C和Lp(a)不同,高水平的因子VIII:C和TAFI是静脉血栓栓塞的轻度危险因素,并在很大程度上增加了因子V莱顿突变携带者发生静脉血栓栓塞的风险。我们的数据支持因子V莱顿突变的临床表型取决于血栓形成倾向疾病共同遗传的假说。
