Abstract Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were recently found to be associated with activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). Because shortened aPTT levels have been observed in patients experiencing venous thrombosis (VT), we investigated the effects of these 3 aPTT-associated SNPs, rs2731672, rs9898, and rs710446, on the risk of VT in a sample of 1110 healthy patients and 1542 patients with VT. Among the 3 tested SNPs, only rs710446 was associated with VT risk; the rs710446-C allele was associated with an increased risk of VT (odds ratio 1.196, 95% confidence interval 1.071-1.336, P = .0012). This association also was observed in an independent sample of 590 controls and 596 patients (odds ratio 1.171, 95% confidence interval 0.889-1.541, P = .059). We also confirmed that the rs710446-C allele was associated with decreased aPTT levels, making this nonsynonymous Ile581Thr variant a new genetic risk factor for VT.

Abstract Background Venous thrombosis (VT), a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, is increased 4- to 5- fold during pregnancy. A thrombosis score comprising 5 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) [rs6025 (Factor V Leiden), rs1799963 (Prothrombin 20210 G>A), rs8176719 (ABO 261G>deletion), rs2066865 (FGG 10034 C>T) and rs2036914 (F11 10364T>C)] was previously shown to be associated with VT events in the general population. We asked whether this thrombosis score could predict VT in pregnant and postpartum women in a case-control study on the etiology of thrombosis. Methods We studied women during pregnancy and up to three months postpartum (55 controls, 144 cases) selected from over 5000 female cases and controls of the MEGA (the Multiple Environmental and Genetic Assessment of risk factors for venous thrombosis) study. The thrombosis score was calculated for each individual as a sum of risk alleles weighted by the log of the published odds ratio (de Haan et al, Blood 2012). The VT risk per unit of thrombosis score was calculated as a continuous variable in a logistic regression model that adjusted for age, smoking history and family history of VT. The thrombosis scores ranged from 0 to 1.8 in female participants in MEGA with genotypes for the 5 SNPs (n=3,464). Results In pregnant and postpartum women, the odds ratio per unit increase in thrombosis score was 10.7 (95%CI 3.2 to 36.2). When the thrombosis score was evaluated in a sub study of pregnant and postpartum women who do not carry factor V Leiden—an important contributant to the risk score— the remaining 4-SNP thrombosis score was also associated with VT: the odds ratio per unit increase in thrombosis score was 10.6 (95%CI 2.3-48.3).The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends thromboprophylaxis during pregnancy and postpartum periods in women who are compound carriers of both factor V Leiden and prothrombin 20210 G>A; these compound carriers who do not carry other risk variants would have a thrombosis score of 1.02. Compared with women in the bottom quintile of thrombosis scores, women with thrombosis scores equal to or greater than 1.02 had an odds ratio for VT of 12.3 (95%CI 1.5 to 99.9). About 2% of female controls in MEGA had thrombosis scores equal to or greater than 1.02. Conclusions A 5-SNP thrombosis score that combines the VT risk of 5 genetic variants is associated with VT in pregnant women. Disclosures: Bare: Celera: Employment. Arellano:Celera: Employment.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Genome-wide association studies have revealed an association between SRY (Sex Determining Region Y)-box 17 (SOX17) gene and intracranial aneurysm (IA) formation. However, results were mainly derived from European and Japanese populations. We investigated the association between SOX17 gene polymorphisms and IA in a homogeneous Korean population. We performed a meta-analysis to assess these results in East-Asian populations. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 187 age- and sex-matched patients with IA and 372 control subjects. Genetic association analysis was performed in the generalized linear model to identify associations between 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms and IA, including 95 patients with ruptured aneurysms and 92 with unruptured aneurysms. The East-Asian meta-analysis of 5100 IA cases and 7930 control cases was conducted under an inverse variance model. RESULTS Among 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms that passed quality control tests, the minor C allele of rs1072737 was significantly associated with IA (odds ratio 0.69, 95% confidence interval 0.49-0.96, P = .03). None of the 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms showed a significant association between patients with ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. Meta-analysis revealed that G alleles of rs10958409 and rs9298506 were significantly associated with IA in the East-Asian population after removing study heterogeneity (odds ratio 1.11, 95% confidence interval 1.04-1.19, P = .0023 and odds ratio 1.19, 95% confidence interval 1.07-1.32, P = .0016). CONCLUSION Identification of genetic variants located near SOX17 is likely to be clinically significant for IA formation. rs10958409 and rs9298506 may increase risk of IA in East-Asian populations. Our findings may help in the identification of IA pathogenesis.

Abstract Activated protein C (APC) resistance caused by the factor V Leiden mutation is associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis. We investigated whether a reduced response to APC, not due to the factor V point mutation, is also a risk factor for venous thrombosis. For this analysis, we used the Leiden Thrombophilia Study (LETS), a case-control study for venous thrombosis including 474 patients with a first deep-vein thrombosis and 474 age- and sex-matched controls. All carriers of the factor V Leiden mutation were excluded. A dose-response relationship was observed between the sensitivity for APC and the risk of thrombosis: the lower the normalized APC sensitivity ratio, the higher the associated risk. The risk for the lowest quartile of normalized APC-SR (<0.92), which included 16.5% of the healthy controls, compared with the highest quartile (normalized APC-SR > 1.05) was greater than fourfold increased (OR = 4.4; 95% confidence interval, 2.9 to 6.6). We adjusted for VIII:C levels, which appeared to affect our APC resistance test. The adjusted (age, sex, FVIII:C) odds ratio for the lowest quartile was 2.5 (95% confidence interval, 1.5 to 4.2). So, after adjustment for factor VIII levels, a reduced response to APC remained a risk factor. Our results show that a reduced sensitivity for APC, not caused by the factor V Leiden mutation, is a risk factor for venous thrombosis.

Background: Esophageal cancer (EC) is the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and the overall incidence is increasing. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in IL1R2 and EC risk in the Chinese population. Methods: Genotyping of six SNPs of IL1R2 was performed with the Agena MassARRAY platform from 384 EC and 499 controls. The association between polymorphisms and EC risk was assessed by performing genetics models and haplotype analyses. Results: Overall analysis results showed that the allele C of rs11674595 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.42, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.14-1.77, p = 0.002) and allele G of rs2072472 (allele: OR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.08-1.69, p = 0.008) were associated with an increased EC risk. The rs11674595 and rs2072472 were found to be correlated with EC risk under the codominant, dominant, and additive models. Stratification analysis found that rs11674595 and rs2072472 were associated with increased EC risk in male and in age > 55 years old subgroup. In addition, Crs11674595Grs4851527 haplotype was significantly associated with 1.44-fold increased risk of EC (95% CI: 1.12-1.84, p = 0.004). Conclusions : Our results reveal the significant association between SNPs (rs11674595 and rs2072472) in the IL1R2 and EC risk in the Chinese Han population. The findings may provide meaningful reference for the prevention and treatment of EC.

ObjectiveCervical carcinoma (CC), a multifactorial cancer, is assumed to have a host genetic predisposition component that modulates its susceptibility in various populations. We investigated the association between CC risk in Saudi women and 6 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in hypothesis-driven candidate genes.MethodsA total of 545 females were included, comprising 232 CC patients and 313 age-/sex-matched control subjects. Six SNPs (CDKN1A C31A, ATM G1853A, HDM2 T309G, TGFB1 T10C, XRCC1 G399A, and XRCC3 C241T) were genotyped by direct sequencing.ResultsOf the 6 SNPs studied, TGFB1 T10C (odds ratio, 0.74; 95% confidence interval, 0.57–0.94) and XRCC1 G399A (odds ratio, 1.45; 95% confidence interval, 1.11–1.90) displayed different frequencies in cancer patients and control subjects and showed statistically significant association in univariate (P = 0.017, P = 0.005, respectively) analysis. The Cochran-Armitage trend test had confirmed the results (P = 0.027 and P = 0.006, respectively), indicating an ordering in the effect of the risk alleles in CC patients. The 2 SNPs, TGFB1 T10C and XRCC1 G399A, showed also degrees of deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in cancer patients (P = 0.001 and P = 0.083, respectively) but not in the control subjects. Furthermore, correction for multiple testing using multivariate logistic regression to assess the joint effect of all SNPs has sustained significant statistical association (P = 0.025 and P = 0.009, respectively).ConclusionsTGFB1 T10C and XRCC1 G399A SNPs were associated with CC risk in univariate and multivariate analysis and displayed allele-dosage effects and coselection in cancer patients. Patients harboring the majority allele TGFB1 T10 (Leu) or the variant allele XRCC1 399A (Gln) have approximately 1.5-fold increased risk to develop CC. Host SNPs genotyping may provide relevant biomarkers for CC risk assessment in personalized preventive medicine.

Background: Coagulation plays a role in ischemic heart disease (IHD). However, which coagulation factors are targets of intervention is unclear. We assessed how genetically predicted vWF (von Willebrand factor), ETP (endogenous thrombin potential), FVIII (factor VIII), d -dimer, tPA (tissue-type plasminogen activator), and PAI (plasminogen activator inhibitor)-1 affected IHD. We similarly estimated effects on lipids to determine whether any associations were independent of lipids. Methods and Results: Separate sample instrumental variable analysis with genetic instruments, that is, Mendelian randomization, was used to obtain unconfounded estimates of effects on IHD using extensively genotyped studies of coronary artery disease/myocardial infarction, CARDIoGRAMplusC4D Metabochip (64 374 cases, 130 681 controls) and CARDIoGRAMplusC4D 1000 Genomes (60 801 cases, 123 504 controls), and on lipids using the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium Results (n=196 475). Genetically predicted ETP was positively associated with IHD (odds ratio, 1.05 per log-transformed SD; 95% confidence interval, 1.03–1.07) based on 15 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, as were vWF (odds ratio, 1.05 per SD; 95% confidence interval, 1.02–1.08) and FVIII (odds ratio, 1.06 per SD; 95% confidence interval, 1.03–1.09) based on 16 and 6 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, respectively, but the latter associations were null after considering pleiotropy. vWF and FVIII were associated with higher LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, but not after considering pleiotropy. Genetically predicted d -dimer, tPA, and PAI-1 were not clearly associated with IHD or lipids based on 3, 3, and 5 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, respectively. Conclusions: ETP may affect IHD. Assessing the role of its drivers in more precisely phenotyped studies of IHD could be worthwhile.

Background The goal of this study was to determine if the combination of surgery and anesthesia is an independent risk factor for the development of incident (first-time) ischemic stroke. Methods All residents of Rochester, MN, with incident ischemic stroke from 1960 through 1984 (1,455 cases and 1,455 age- and gender-matched controls) were used to identify risk factors associated with ischemic stroke. Cases and controls undergoing surgery involving general anesthesia or central neuroaxis blockade before their stroke/index date of diagnosis were identified. A conditional logistic regression model was used to estimate the odds ratio of surgery and anesthesia for ischemic stroke while adjusting for other known risk factors. Results There were 59 cases and 17 controls having surgery within 30 days before their stroke/index date. After adjusting for previously identified risk factors, surgery within 30 days before the stroke/index date (perioperative period) was found to be an independent risk factor for stroke (P<0.001; odds ratio, 3.9; 95% confidence interval, 2.1-7.4). In an analysis that excluded matched pairs where the case and/or control underwent surgery considered "high risk" for stroke (cardiac, neurologic, or vascular procedures), "non-high-risk surgery" was also found to be an independent risk factor for perioperative stroke (P = 0.002; odds ratio, 2.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.5-5.7). Conclusion Our results suggest that there is an increased risk of ischemic stroke in the 30 days after surgery and anesthesia. This risk remains elevated even after excluding surgeries (cardiac, neurologic, and vascular surgeries) considered to be high risk for ischemic stroke.

AbstractAtrial septal defect is one of the most common CHD. The pathogenesis of atrial septal defect still remains unknown.Cx43is the most prevalent connexin in the mammalian heart during development. Its genetic variants can cause several CHD. The aim of our study was to investigate the association of genetic variations of theCx43with sporadic atrial septal defect. A total of 450 paediatric patients were recruited, including 150 cases with atrial septal defect and 300 healthy controls. The promoter region ofCx43was analysed by sequencing after polymerase chain reaction. All data were analysed by using the Statistic Package for Social Science 19.0 software. The frequency of the single nucleotide polymorphism rs2071166 was significantly higher in atrial septal defect cases than in healthy controls. The CC genotype at rs2071166 site inCx43was correlated with an increased risk for atrial septal defect (p<0.0001, odds ratio=3.891, 95% confidence interval 1.948–7.772) and the C allele was positively correlated with atrial septal defect (p=0.007, odds ratio=1.567, 95% confidence interval 1.129–2.175). In conclusion, our results confirmed that rs2071166 inCx43may be relevant with an increased atrial septal defect risk.

Abstract Approximately 1% of people worldwide carry a copy of the human herpesvirus 6A or 6B (HHV-6A/B) in every cell of their body. This condition is referred to as inherited chromosomally integrated HHV-6A/B (iciHHV-6A/B). The mechanisms leading to iciHHV-6A/B chromosomal integration are yet to be identified. A recent report suggested that the rs73185306 C/T single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) represents a favorable predisposing factor leading to HHV-6A/B integration. After genotype analysis of an independent cohort (N = 11 967), we report no association between the rs73185306 C/T SNP and HHV-6A/B chromosomal integration (odds ratio, 0.90 [95% confidence interval, .54–1.51]; P = .69).
