Meta-Analysis of Factor V, Factor VII, Factor XII, and Factor XIII-A Gene Polymorphisms and Ischemic Stroke.

ABSTRACT: Numerous studies examined the association between factors FV, FVII, FXII, and FXIII-A gene polymorphisms and ischemic stroke, but conclusive evidence is yet to be obtained. Thus, this meta-analysis aimed to investigate the novel association of FV rs1800595, FVII rs5742910, FXII rs1801020, and FXIII-A rs5982 and rs3024477 polymorphisms with ischemic stroke risk. A systematic review was performed on articles retrieved before June 2018. Relevant data were extracted from eligible studies and meta-analyzed using RevMan version 5.3. The strength of association between studied polymorphisms and ischemic stroke risk was calculated as odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals, by applying both fixed- and random-effect models. A total of 25 studies involving 6100 ischemic stroke patients and 9249 hea
