Hypercoagulable states occur when the process of hemostasis is disturbed. It manifests as a deep vein thrombosis or a pulmonary embolism. It is also one of the most common cardiovascular diseases. There are two factors- genetic and acquired. Inherent factors involve coagulation inhibitor deficiency, prothrombin gene mutation and activated protein C resistance. Acquired factors include antiphospolipid syndrome, pregnancy, overweight etc. The analytic part of the thesis is focused on the effect of a low molecular weight heparin. It was shown in many theses that the LMWH could have a negative impact on a parturition complications or a week of parturition, a birth weight. The results of statistical analysis show that there is a coherence between the week of parturition and the type of parturition. What is more, the anticoagulation drug therapy shows a positive effect on the week of parturion. The data used in the thesis originate in laboratory information management system of Clinical Haematology ward in the hospital Nemocnice České Budějovice a.s.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar se as trombofilias pioram os desfechos maternos e fetais entre pacientes com formas graves de pré-eclâmpsia (PE). MÉTODO: De outubro/2009 a outubro/2014, foi realizada uma coorte retrospectiva de gestantes com PE grave diagnosticada antes de 34 semanas e seus recém-nascidos (RNs), internados no Hospital das Clínicas da FMUSP. Foram incluídas pacientes que tinham ausência de cardiopatias, nefropatias, diabetes pré-gestacional, moléstia trofoblástica gestacional, malformação fetal, gemelidade e que realizaram pesquisa de trombofilias no período pós-natal. Foram excluídas gestações subsequentes de uma mesma paciente no período de estudo, confirmação de alteração morfológica, genética ou cromossômica fetal, após o nascimento, e ainda as que realizaram uso de heparina ou ácido acetil salicílico durante a gestação. Foram pesquisados: fator V de Leiden, a mutação G20210A da protrombina, antitrombina, proteína C, proteína S, homocisteína, anticoagulante lúpico e anticorpos anticardiolipina IgG e IgM. Compararam-se os grupos com e sem trombofilia em relação a parâmetros clínicos e laboratoriais maternos e desfechos perinatais. Esta pesquisa foi aprovada pela Comissão de Ética para Análise de Projetos de Pesquisa da FMUSP. RESULTADOS: Entre as 127 pacientes selecionadas, 30 (23,6%) apresentaram diagnóstico de pelo menos uma trombofilia, hereditária ou adquirida. Entre as pacientes com trombofilia, tivemos mais pacientes da raça branca (p= 0,036). A análise de parâmetros maternos mostrou uma tendência das trombofílicas terem mais plaquetopenia (p=0,056) e evidenciou piora de parâmetros laboratoriais quando analisados em conjunto (aspartato aminotransferase >= 70 mg/dL, alanina aminotransferase>=70 mg/dL, plaquetas < 100.000/mm3, creatinina sérica >= 1,1 mg/dL); p=0,017. Não houve diferença quanto aos achados perinatais fetais. CONCLUSÃO: A presença de trombofilia associa-se à piora em parâmetros laboratoriais maternos, em pacientes com formas graves de PE, sem, contudo, piorar os desfechos perinatais, ao menos na amostra estudada / OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether thrombophilia worsens maternal and foetal outcomes among patients with severe preeclampsia (PE). METHOD: From October 2009 to October 2014, a retrospective cohort study was performed on pregnant women with severe PE diagnosed before 34 weeks of gestation and their newborns hospitalized at the Clinics Hospital, FMUSP. Patients who had no heart disease, nephropathies, pre-gestational diabetes, gestational trophoblastic disease, foetal malformation, or twin pregnancy and who underwent thrombophilia screening during the postnatal period were included. Subsequent pregnancies of the same patient during the study period; cases of foetal morphological, genetic, or chromosomal abnormalities after birth; and women who used heparin or acetylsalicylic acid during pregnancy were excluded. Factor V Leiden, G20210A prothrombin mutation, antithrombin, protein C, protein S, homocysteine, lupus anticoagulant, and anticardiolipin IgG and IgM antibodies were analysed. The groups with and without thrombophilia were compared regarding their maternal clinical and laboratory parameters and perinatal outcomes. This research was approved by the Ethics Committee for the Analysis of Research Projects of FMUSP. RESULTS: Of the 127 patients selected, 30 (23.6%) had a diagnosis of at least one thrombophilia, either hereditary or acquired. Among the patients with thrombophilia, we observed more white patients (p = 0.036). Analysis of maternal parameters showed a tendency of thrombophilic women to have more thrombocytopenia (p = 0.056) and showed worsening of laboratory parameters when analysed jointly (aspartate aminotransferase >= 70 mg/dL, alanine aminotransferase >= 70 mg/dL, platelets < 100,000/mm3, serum creatinine >= 1.1 mg/dL; p = 0.017). There were no differences in foetal perinatal findings. CONCLUSION: The presence of thrombophilia is associated with worsening of maternal laboratory parameters in patients with severe forms of PE but not with the worsening of perinatal outcomes, at least in the sample studied

Introduction et buts de la thèse<p>La survie du patient et du greffon se sont nettement améliorées depuis les débuts de la transplantation rénale. Les recommandations de pratiques cliniques basées sur l’évidence aident les cliniciens à améliorer la prise en charge standardisée des patients. Cependant, de nombreux programmes de recherche sont actuellement axés sur la découverte de biomarqueurs qui peuvent prédire les différents résultats chez les patients transplantés rénaux. Ces biomarqueurs sont nécessaires pour personnaliser la gestion et le traitement des patients.<p>Le but des travaux résumés dans cette thèse est d'évaluer l'impact potentiel de plusieurs facteurs biologiques acquis et génétiques spécifiques sur les résultats après la transplantation rénale, en particulier les facteurs de thrombophilie et les polymorphismes génétiques associés au diabète post-transplantation.<p>1. Facteurs de thrombophilie<p>Les patients en insuffisance rénale terminale présentent des anomalies complexes de la coagulation, dont les mécanismes sous-jacents ne sont pas connus à ce jour. La thrombose des vaisseaux du greffon et les événements thromboemboliques comme la thrombose veineuse profonde et / ou l’embolie pulmonaire sont des complications graves, mais relativement rares après transplantation rénale. Au cours de la dernière décennie, plusieurs études ont évalué l'impact des facteurs de thrombophilie sur les résultats après la transplantation rénale, tels que les événements thrombo-emboliques, y compris la thrombose de l’artère ou la veine du greffon, le rejet aigu, les événements cardiovasculaires ou la survie du greffon. Cependant, les limitations méthodologiques et l'hétérogénéité de ces études rendent les conclusions ou les recommandations difficiles. D’autre part, la prévalence exacte des facteurs de thrombophilie dans la population de patients en insuffisance rénale terminale et la correction éventuelle de ces facteurs après transplantation ne sont pas connues. Dans ce contexte, nous avons réalisé une étude prospective afin d’évaluer l’impact d’un panel de 11 facteurs de thrombophilie testés le jour de la transplantation et 1 mois plus tard, sur les événements thrombo-emboliques et le rejet aigu durant la première année de greffe [58]. Nous avons également évalué la prévalence de 7 facteurs de thrombophilie non-génétiques chez les patients en insuffisance rénale terminale et le taux de correction après la transplantation rénale dans une cohorte de 215 patients [59]. <p>2. Diabète post-transplantation<p>Le diabète post-transplantation est une complication métabolique grave et fréquente après la transplantation. Les patients transplantés rénaux souffrant d’un diabète post-transplantation ont un risque plus élevé d'événements cardiovasculaires majeurs, de décès et d’échec de greffe. Une étude prospective rapporte une incidence de 20,5% durant les six premiers mois de greffe rénale, en utilisant les critères stricts de l'ADA (American Diabetes Association). La plupart des facteurs de risque identifiés sont communs avec le diabète de type 2 dans la population générale: l'âge, les antécédents familiaux, l’ethnie (africaine et hispanique), l'indice de masse corporelle élevé, une sérologie hépatite C positive et la présence d’un syndrome métabolique. Certains traitements immunosuppresseurs sont des facteurs de risque de diabète post-transplantation spécifiques et modifiables. Les inhibiteurs de la calcineurine sont diabétogènes et il a été clairement montré que le tacrolimus est plus diabétogène que la cyclosporine. En se basant sur ces données, nous avons remplacé le tacrolimus par la cyclosporine chez une série de patients ayant développé un diabète post-transplantation sous tacrolimus. Nous avons évalué rétrospectivement l’efficacité et la sécurité de cette approche [60]. Nous avons également élaboré des recommandations pour la prise en charge du diabète post-transplantation sur base de notre expérience et des études publiées [62]. <p>La susceptibilité génétique du diabète post-transplantation a été étudiée par des approches «gènes candidats », mais les faibles effectifs et l'absence de réplication dans des cohortes indépendantes rendent les conclusions difficiles. Les études pan-génomiques de type « genome wide association study (GWAS) apportent un éclairage neuf sur les origines génétiques du diabète de type 2. Plus de 10 loci de susceptibilité ont été associés au diabète de type 2 dans la population générale, avec des odds ratio (OR) allant de 1.10 à 1.20, excepté un variant commun du gène TCF7L2 pour lequel le risque de la maladie augmente de 37% par allèle à risque. Nous avons utilisé une approche gène candidat en sélectionnant 11 variants génétiques associés au diabète de type 2 à travers ces GWAS et nous avons évalué leur association avec le risque de diabète post-transplantation durant les 6 premiers mois post-transplantation, dans une large cohorte de Caucasiens (N = 1076) [61].<p>Méthodologie générale<p>L’unité de transplantation rénale de l'Hôpital Erasme (Université Libre de Bruxelles) a créé une base de données clinique incluant les patients transplantés depuis 1964 dans l'institution et une biocollection (ADN et sérum) depuis 2001. En outre, depuis 2007, l'unité de transplantation rénale de l'Hôpital Erasme a développé une collaboration avec d'autres centres européens de transplantation rénale (CHU de Tours, CHU de Limoges, CHU de Brest, CHU de Saint-Étienne, CHRU de Lille, CHU de Poitiers et CHU de Bordeaux actuellement). Nous avons actuellement collecté les données cliniques et l’ADN de plus de 4000 receveurs d'allogreffe rénale.<p>Résultats<p>1. Facteurs de thrombophilie<p>Nous avons enrôlé prospectivement 320 greffes rénales consécutives correspondant à 317 patients greffés dans notre institution entre 2001 et 2006. Onze facteurs de thrombophilie ont étés dosés le jour de la transplantation. Dix patients ont étés exclus en raison de valeurs manquantes pour plus de 3 facteurs. Tous nos patients ont reçu de l’acide acétylsalicylique en prophylaxie, débuté juste avant la greffe. Le taux d'événements thromboemboliques et/ou de rejet aigu durant la première année post-transplantation (critère d’évaluation primaire composite) était de 16,7% chez les patients sans facteur de thrombophilie (N = 60) et de 17,2% chez ceux ayant au moins un facteur de thrombophilie (N = 250) (P=NS) le jour de la greffe. L'incidence du critère d’évaluation primaire était similaire chez les patients sans facteur de thrombophilie et ceux avec au moins deux (N = 135), ou au moins trois (n = 53) facteurs (16,3% et 15,1% respectivement, P=NS) et chez les patients avec au moins un facteur persistant 1 mois après la greffe (15,7%, P=NS). Aucun des facteurs de thrombophilie individuels présents le jour de la transplantation n’était associé au critère d’évaluation primaire. L'incidence des événements cardio-vasculaires à 1 an, la créatinine sérique à 1 an, la survie de greffe actuarielle à 4 ans n’étaient pas influencés par la présence d’au moins un facteur de thrombophilie le jour de la greffe (P= NS).<p>La prévalence des facteurs de thrombophilie était significativement plus élevée chez les patients dialysés que chez les patients non encore dialysés le jour de la greffe (74% vs 52,4%, P =0,03). La prévalence était similaire chez les patients hémodialysés et en dialyse péritonéale (P=NS). Un mois après la transplantation, la prévalence globale des facteurs de thrombophilie a chuté de 74,4% à 44,7% (P <0,001). La plupart des facteurs de thrombophilie avaient disparus après la transplantation. <p>2. Le diabète post-transplantation<p>Nous avons analysé rétrospectivement les paramètres du métabolisme glucidique chez 54 patients greffés rénaux traités par tacrolimus et développant un diabète post-transplantation. Trente-quatre patients ont été convertis à la cyclosporine alors que 20 patients ont poursuivi le tacrolimus (groupe contrôle). Après la conversion, le taux de rémission du diabète post-transplantation était de 42% (IC 95% :24-59%) 1 an après la conversion versus 0% dans le groupe contrôle (P=0,001). La conversion<p>était sûre en termes de fonction du greffon, de rejet aigu, de survie des patients et du greffon.<p>Dans notre étude multicentrique (Hôpital Erasme-Bruxelles, CHU de Tours, CHU de Limoges et CHRU de Lille), nous avons enrôlé 1477 patients greffés successivement. Parmi les 1229 patients éligibles pour l’étude, 1076 étaient Caucasiens (analyses primaires). Un total de 118 patients, soit 11% des Caucasiens ont développé un diabète post-transplantation durant les 6 premiers mois de greffe. En analyse multi-variée, le variant rs7903146 de TCF7L2 était indépendamment associé au diabète post-transplantation (OR = 1,60 pour chaque allèle T, P = 0,002). Les autres facteurs de risque indépendants étaient: l'âge du receveur, l’indice de masse corporelle au moment de la greffe, l'utilisation du tacrolimus et la survenue d'un épisode de rejet aigu traité par corticoïdes.<p>Conclusions<p>Les facteurs de thrombophilie sont très fréquents au stade terminal de l'insuffisance rénale et sont corrigés dans la grande majorité après la transplantation rénale. Cela suggère que la plupart des facteurs sont acquis et associés à l'urémie et / ou la dialyse. En outre, notre étude prospective n’a pas démontré d’impact des facteurs de thrombophilie détectés de manière systématique avant la transplantation sur les résultats après transplantation rénale, dans une population recevant un régime immunosuppresseur moderne et de l’acide acétylsalicylique en prophylaxie.<p>L’effet diabétogène du tacrolimus est réversible. Nos résultats suggèrent une amélioration significative du métabolisme glucidique après la conversion à la cyclosporine chez les patients transplantés rénaux atteints de diabète post-transplantation sous tacrolimus.<p>Le diabète post-transplantation et le diabète de type 2 partagent des facteurs de risque communs, dont un variant du gène TCF7L2. La place de ce type de biomarqueur dans la prédiction de la survenue du diabète post-transplantation et dans les stratégies de modification d’immunosuppression doit faire l’objet d’évaluations prospectives.<p> / Doctorat en Sciences médicales / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

In Introduction, the author of this dissertation deals with postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE), hereditary and acquired risk factors, prophylaxis regimens and recent recommendation of VTE prevention in surgery. In Practical part of this work the author assesses the risk of VTE in surgical patients according to risk assessment model. Genetic testing is carried out in all patients to determine the incidence of hereditary thrombophilia and coagulation markers are measured in 28-days postoperative period. Prevalence of VTE in 1-year postoperative period is observed. The results are analysed in group of patients with benign disease (hernia and gallstone disease) and group of patients with malignancy (colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer) separately. The objective of this work is to determine the incidence of the most frequent thrombophilic mutations (factor V Leiden mutation and protrombin G20210A mutation) and assess the impact of hereditary thrombophilia on incidence of postoperative venous thromboembolism in general surgery. Validation of venous thrombosis risk assessment model recommended by Czech Society for Thrombosis and Hemostasis is further objective.

Introduction: La stratégie diagnostique de l’EP au cours de la grossesse est incertaine du fait du manque d’études solides d’un point de vue méthodologique, et du risque lié à l’irradiation des examens diagnostiques (angioscanner thoracique et scintigraphie pulmonaire). L’enjeu est donc de valider des stratégies performantes d’une part, et d’identifier des marqueurs cliniques permettant de réduire le recours aux examens irradiants d’autre part. Notre premier objectif a été d’identifier les pièges au cours de la stratégie diagnostique de l’EP (baisse de la performance du dosage des D‐dimères, des scores de probabilité clinique et de l’imagerie) au cours de la grossesse. Le deuxième objectif a été de comparer les performances diagnostiques et les risques des deux examens d’imagerie de référence que constituent la scintigraphie pulmonaire et l’angioscanner thoracique. Le troisième objectif a été de valider une stratégie diagnostique permettant une réduction du recours aux examens irradiants (ajustement du taux de D-dimères sur la probabilité clinique). Le dernier objectif a été de mettre en place un programme de recherche centré sur le poids des antécédents familiaux de MVTE, paramètre lui aussi susceptible de réduire le recours aux examens paracliniques. Conclusion : Au terme de ces analyses, nous avons développé un programme de validation d’une stratégie diagnostique de l’EP chez la femme enceinte ; en outre, l’identification d’un ajustement du taux de D‐dimères sur la probabilité clinique ainsi que, en termes de perspective, sur les antécédents familiaux de MVTE a le potentiel de conduire à des stratégies diagnostiques moins irradiantes et plus performantes chez les femmes enceintes ayant une suspicion d’EP. / Introduction : The diagnostic strategy for PE during pregnancy is uncertain due to the lack of high quality studies and the risk of radiation exposure with computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) and ventilationperfusion (V-Q) lung scan. The challenge is to validate diagnostic strategies, and to identify predictive factors to reduce the number of additional imaging tests with radiation exposure.First, we aim to identify pitfalls during the diagnostic strategy of PE (the D-dimer assay threshold, clinical probability scores, imaging) during pregnancy. Second, our objective was to compare the diagnostic efficiency of CTPA and (V-Q) lung scan during pregnancy.Third, our objective was to validate a diagnostic strategy wich reduces the number of imaging tests (adjustment of the D-dimer level on the clinical probability). Finally, the last objective was to set up a research program focused on the weight of the family history of MVTE, that may also reduce the need of additional tests. Conclusion : We identified an ongoing validation protocol with a new diagnostic algorithm in pregnant patients withPE suspicion ; Furthermore, identifying a D-dimer level adjustement as well as a family history of VTE can lead tomore effective diagnostic stragegies with less radiation exposure for pregnant women with suspected PE.

Objetivo: avaliar associação dos antecedentes mórbidos, da Dopplervelocimetria de artérias uterinas, dos anticorpos antifosfolipídeos (AAF) e resultados obstétricos/perinatais em um grupo de gestantes. Sujeitos e Métodos: foi conduzido um estudo de coorte e corte transversal, onde foram analisadas gestantes atendidas nos Ambulatórios de Pré-Natal da Unicamp que aceitaram participar do estudo. Foi aplicado um questionário sobre os antecedentes mórbidos, realização de dosagem dos AAF, realizada Dopplervelocimetria de artérias uterinas e analisada correlação com resultados obstétricos/perinatais. Resultado: foram avaliadas 385 gestantes com média de idade de 26,6 (±6,3) anos. A anticardiolipina (aCL) e o anti-ß2 glicoproteína I (anti-ß2-gpI) foram avaliados em 382 gestantes, dos quais 4,4% apresentaram o anti-ß2gpI IgM positivo, 4,7% IgG, 6,2% aCL IgG e 6,7% IgM. O anticoagulante lúpico (AL) foi avaliado em 137 gestantes com positividade em 2,3%. 33,4% das gestantes tinham, pelo menos, um antecedente obstétrico desfavorável (aborto recorrente, óbito fetal, pré-eclâmpsia, parto prematuro, filho anterior nascido com peso menor que 2.500g ou descolamento prematuro de placenta) e 2,6% tinham eventos trombóticos (infarto, acidente vascular cerebral, tromboembolismo pulmonar ou trombose venosa profunda). 16,5% tinham pelo menos um antecedente e um AAF positivo, contra 13,3% sem antecedente (p=0,44). 10% apresentavam antecedente trombótico e AAF positivo contra 14,4% sem história de evento trombótico e AAF negativo (p=0,88). As complicações obstétricas/perinatais foram avaliadas em 305 gestantes sendo que no grupo com antecedentes 31,7% evoluíram para alguma complicação obstétrica na gestação em curso contra 28,4% do grupo sem antecedente (p=0,59). Analisando o desfecho pré-eclâmpsia com pelo menos um antecedente, 7,7% x 4,5% (p=0,29), índice Apgar no 5º minuto menor ou igual a 7, 4,9% x 5,6% (p=0,57), peso abaixo de 2.500g, 15,5% x 12% (p=0,47). Quando separados os grupos com e sem antecedentes e comparados ao Doppler de artérias uterinas as mulheres que relataram peso inferior a 2.500g tiveram 4,0 [IC95: 1,16-13,7] vezes mais chance de apresentar índice de pulsatilidade acima do percentil 95 (IP>P95) e 4,68 [IC95: 1,37-15,9] quando apresentavam antecedente de elevação da pressão arterial antes das 34 semanas em gestação anterior. Não foram encontradas correlações dos outros antecedentes com o Doppler. Quando o IP>P95 houve um risco relativo (RR) de 2,77 [IC95: 1,87-4,11] para pelo menos uma complicação obstétrica/perinatal, 5,19 [IC95: 1,41-19,1] para Apgar do 5º minuto menor que 7 e 6,94 [IC95: 4,31-11,1] de peso abaixo de 2.500g. Quando associado IP>P95 e pelo menos um antecedente o RR para peso abaixo de 2.500g foi de 6,06 [IC95: 3,19-11,5] e 6,61 [IC95: 3,46-12,6] para parto antes das 37 semanas. Quando comparados os dois grupos não foi encontrada significância estatística no desfecho de pré-eclâmpsia com RR de 4.70 [IC95: 0,80-27,4]. Na avaliação do IP>P95 e AAF, 11,1% tinham o IP>P95 e pelo menos um AAF, contra 14,4% no grupo sem essas características, com Razão de Prevalência (RP)=0,77 [IC95: 0,11-4,96]. A RP para o grupo com IP>P95 e pelo menos um antecedente para a presença de pelo menos um AAF, foi de 1,75 [IC95: 0,31-9,75]. Conclusão: os antecedentes obstétricos desfavoráveis, assim como o Doppler de artérias uterinas não se correlacionaram com os AAF. O aumento da resistência ao Doppler nas artérias uterinas, isoladamente ou em associação aos antecedentes mórbidos, apresentou maior chance de complicações obstétricas/perinatais. Não foram encontradas diferenças estatísticas quando avaliado o Doppler associado com antecedentes e AAF / Abstract: The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies is often associated with obstetrical complications such as recurrent miscarriage, fetal death, placental abruption and severe early preeclampsia. Objective: To evaluate the association between a history of morbidity, uterine artery Doppler flow, serum antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) and perinatal/obstetric outcomes in a group of pregnant women. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional cohort study evaluated pregnant women receiving care at Unicamp's prenatal clinic, who agreed to participate in the study. A questionnaire was applied to obtain data on the patient's history of morbidity, serum antiphospholipid antibodies were measured and a Doppler scan of the uterine arteries was performed. Results were correlated with obstetrical/perinatal outcome. Results: A total of 385 pregnant women with a mean age of 26.6 ± 6.3 years were evaluated. Anticardiolipin (aCL) and anti-ß2 glycoprotein I (anti-ß2-gpI) were evaluated in a group of 382 pregnant women, 4.4% of whom tested positive for anti-ß2-gpI IgM, 4.7% for IgG, 6.2% for ACL IgG and 6.7% for IgM. Lupus anticoagulant (LA) was evaluated in 137 pregnant women, 2.3% of whom tested positive. Overall, 33.4% of patients had a medical history that included recurrent miscarriage, fetal death, preeclampsia, prematurity, previous pregnancy resulting in an infant with birthweight of <2.500g or placental abruption. In addition, 2.6% had experienced a thrombotic event such as myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary thromboembolism or deep vein thrombosis. Overall, 16.5% of patients had at least one of the above-mentioned conditions and tested positive for APA compared to 13.3% of those with no medical history of any of these conditions (p=0.44). Ten percent of the women had experienced a thrombotic event and tested positive for APA while 14.4% had never had a thrombotic event and tested negative for APA (p=0.88). Obstetric and perinatal outcomes were analyzed in 305 women, and results showed that 31.7% of the women with a medical history of morbidities suffered at least one obstetrical complication in the current pregnancy compared to 28.4% in the group of women who had no medical history of morbidity (p=0.59). When each outcome was correlated with a history of at least one medical condition, preeclampsia was found in 7.7% of cases versus 4.5% in the group with no medical history (p=0.29), 5th minute Apgar score = 7 in 4.9% compared to 5.6% (p=0.57) and birthweight <2.500g in 15.5% compared to 12% (p=0.47). When the groups of women with and without a medical history of complication were analyzed separately and correlated with uterine artery Doppler, the women who reported having had an infant with a birthweight <2.500 grams were four times more likely (95%CI: 1.16-13.7) to have a pulsatility index (PI) above the 95th percentile and 4.68 times more likely (95%CI: 1.37-15.9) if they had a history of increased blood pressure prior to 34 weeks in their previous pregnancy. No significant correlations were found between other medical conditions and PI above the 95th percentile. When the PI was above the 95th percentile, there was a relative risk (RR) of 2.77 (95%CI: 1.87-4.11) of developing at least one obstetrical/perinatal complication, a RR of 5.19 (95%CI: 1.41-19.1) of 5th minute Apgar score being = 7 and a RR of 6.94 (95%CI: 4.31-11.1) of birthweight <2.500 grams. When PI above the 95th percentile was associated with at least one prior complication, the RR for birthweight <2.500 grams was 6.06 (95%CI: 3.19 - 11.5) and 6.61 (95%CI: 3.46 - 12.6) for delivery prior to 37 weeks. When the two groups were compared, no statistically significant correlation was found with respect to eclampsia (RR 4.70; 95%CI: 0.80 - 27.4). In the evaluation of PI above the 95th percentile and APA, 11.1% of patients had PI above the 95th percentile and at least one APA compared to 14.4% in the group without these characteristics (prevalence ratio [PR] 0.77; 95%CI: 0.11-4.96). The PR for the group with PI above the 95th percentile and at least one previous medical condition was 1.75 (95%CI: 0.31-9.75). Conclusion: Neither history of morbidity nor uterine artery Doppler was found to be associated with antiphospholipid antibodies. A significant correlation was found between increased uterine artery Doppler resistance, both when analyzed alone or in association with medical history, and obstetric/perinatal complications. No statistically significant differences were found between uterine artery Doppler associated with medical history and antiphospholipid antibodies / Doutorado / Tocoginecologia / Doutor em Tocoginecologia

<p>Увод: Бројне генске мутације су у основи наследних склоности ка повећаном згрушавању крви (наследних тромбофилија).

Постојање мутације MTHFR А 1298 С утврђено је код 44,94% оболелих и 25,37% здравих испитаника са MTHFR С 677 Т мутацијом. Присуство фактора VIII у повишеној концентрацији утврђено је код 17,71% оболелих а присуство повишених вредности концентрац ије фибриногена код 9,81% оболелих. Код укупно 84,57% оболелих испитаника утврђено је постојање барем једне тромбофилије. Закључци: Између постојања недостатака природних инхибитора коагулације, постојања FV Leiden мутације у хомозиготном облику, као и постојања удружене наследне тромбофилије и настанка ТДВ утврђено је постојање статистички значајне повезаности. Недостатак неког од природних инхибитора повезан је са највећим ризиком за настанак ТДВ.

Most commonly investigated are: antithrombin deficiency, protein C deficiency, protein S deficiency, proaccelerin gene mutation FV Leiden and prothrombin gene mutation FIIG 20210 А. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is common in the general population and many patients experience a recurrence of the disease. It is, therefore, important to determine the significance of parameters contributing to the increased risk for DVT development. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine frequencies of thrombophilic mutations in patients with venous thromboembolism and healthy subjects in population of Vojvodina, to evaluate the association between thrombophilic mutations and thrombosis localization including pulmonary embolism, to determine the difference in age of DVT occurrence between patients with single and combined thrombophilic abnormalities, to determine frequencies of combined thrombophilic abnormalities in patients and healthy subjects and their influence on DVT recurrence compared to single thrombophilic abnormalities and on the basis of the results to determine when genetic testing is needed in order to determine the type and duration of anticoagulation therapy. Materials and methods: The study included 175 patients with documented DVT and sex-matched group of 115 healthy subjects without clinical or laboratory abnormalities, never having experienced DVT. Antithrombin, protein C and protein S activity; activated protein C resistance, factor VIII and fibrinogen levels are determined using coagulation tests, while for FV Leiden, FII G 20210 А, MTHFR C 677 T and MTHFR A 1298C mutation detection allelic discrimination assays on Real-Time PCR instrument are performed. Blood pressure is measured on all patients and in case of suspected plasma lipid levels elevation lipid profile is determined. The data obtained were subject to descriptive statistic and statistical analysis. Results: The total incidence of inherited thrombophilia was 57,14% in patients and 48,21% in healthy subjects. Total frequency of natural coagulation inhibitor deficiencies in patients was 16,57%: antithrombin deficiency 4,0%, protein C deficiency 1,71%, protein S deficiency 10,29% and combined protein C and protein S deficiency 0,57%. The incidence of activated protein C resistance in patients was 30,38%. The incidence of FV Leiden mutation was 21,14% in patients, 16,0% were heterozygous and 5,14% were homozygous, and 10,42% in healthy subjects, all of which were heterozygous. The incidence of FIIG 20210 А mutation was 7,43% in patients, 4,0% were heterozygous and 3,43% were homozygous, and 8,18% in healthy subjects, 6,36% were heterozygous and 1,82% were homozygous. The incidence of MTHFR C 677 T mutation was 50,86% in patients, 42,86% were heterozygous and 18,0% were homozygous, and 62,62% in healthy subjects, 43,93% were heterozygous and 18,69% were homozygous. The incidence of MTHFR A 1298 C mutation was 44,94% in patients with MTHFR C 677 T mutation and 25,37% in healthy subjects MTHFR C 677 T mutation. At least one thrombophilic abnormalitiy was present in 84,57% patients. Conclusions: The association between natural coagulation inhibitor deficiencies, FV Leiden mutation in homozygous form and combined thrombophilia and DVT development was statistically significant. Natural coagulation inhibitor deficiencies were associated with greatest risk of DVT development. The association between FII G 20210 А mutation, in homozygous or heterozygous form, FV Leiden mutation in heterozygous form, MTHFR C 677 T mutation alone or combined with MTHFR A 1298 C mutation and DVT development was not statistically significant. The association between FII G 20210 А mutation, FV Leiden mutation and MTHFR C 677 T mutation in homozygous form and DVT development during pregnancy and puerperium was statistically significant. The association between single or combined inherited thrombophilia and thrombosis localization including pulmonary embolism was not statistically significant. The association between single or combined inherited thrombophilia and the age of DVT occurrence was not statistically significant. The association between MTHFR C 677 T mutation and DVT recurrence was statistically significant. The association between FII G 20210 А mutation and FV Leiden mutation, in homozygous or heterozygous form, combined thrombophilia and DVT recurrence was not statistically significant. The association between obesity and high blood pressure and DVT development was statistically significant. The association between hyperlipoproteinemia and DVT development was not statistically significant. Based on the results we can conclude that decision to perform inherited thrombophilia testing should be based upon age, gender and the presence of transient or permanent risk factors.</p>

O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a diferença de resultados maternos e neonatais em gestações complicadas por trombofilias hereditárias em pacientes com e sem tromboembolismo venoso. Apesar do aumento de evidências, na literatura, sobre a associação de trombofilias congênitas e resultados obstétricos adversos, há ainda dúvida se pacientes trombofílicas com tromboembolismo venoso apresentam resultados maternos e neonatais piores que as pacientes trombofílicas sem tromboembolismo venoso. O estudo analisou 66 gestantes com trombofilias hereditárias, de forma retrospectiva observacional e comparativa, das quais 33 apresentavam tromboembolismo venoso e 36 o não apresentavam. Os principais desfechos relacionados a resultados maternos e neonatais adversos foram: pré-eclâmpsia grave, descolamento prematuro de placenta, restrição de crescimento fetal, natimortalidade, prematuridade e complicações hemorrágicas maternas. As trombofilias congênitas incluídas no estudo foram o fator V de Leiden (FVL), mutação da protrombina G20210A, mutação C677T do gene da 5,10-metilenotetrahidrofolato redutase (MTHFR), deficiência de proteína S, deficiência de proteína C e deficiência de antitrombina. Ambos os grupos apresentaram características populacionais similares. A ocorrência de complicações maternas e fetais/neonatais foi similar nos dois grupos: pré-eclâmpsia grave (P=0,097), descolamento prematuro de placenta (P=0,478), restrição de crescimento fetal (P=0,868), natimortalidade (P=0,359), prematuridade (P=0,441) e complicações hemorrágicas maternas (P=0,478). Este estudo concluiu que a presença de tromboembolismo venoso em gestantes com trombofilia hereditária apresenta resultados maternos e neonatais semelhantes àquelas com trombofilias hereditárias sem tromboembolismo venoso. / The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in maternal and neonatal outcomes in pregnancies complicated by inherited thrombophilias between patients with and without venous thromboembolism. Despite increasing evidence in the literature indicating an association between inherited thrombophilias and adverse obstetric outcomes, doubts remain whether thrombophilic patients with venous thromboembolism present poorer maternal and neonatal outcomes than thrombophilic patients without venous thromboembolism. In this retrospective, observational and comparative study, 66 pregnant women with inherited thrombophilias, including 33 with venous thromboembolism and 36 without thromboembolism, were investigated. The main end-points analyzed were severe pre-eclampsia, placental abruption, fetal growth restriction, stillbirth, preterm delivery, and maternal hemorrhagic complications. The congenital thrombophilias included in this study were factor V Leiden (FVL), prothrombin G20210A mutation, C677T mutation in the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene, protein S deficiency, protein C deficiency, and antithrombin deficiency. The two groups were similar in terms of population characteristics. The frequency of maternal and fetal/neonatal complications was similar in the two groups: severe pre-eclampsia (P=0.097), placental abruption (P=0.478), fetal growth restriction (P=0.868), stillbirth (P=0.359), preterm delivery (P=0.441), and maternal hemorrhagic complications (P=0.478). This study concluded that venous thromboembolism in thrombophilic patients does not worsen maternal or neonatal outcomes when compared to thrombophilic patients without venous thromboembolism.
