Thirty two women (0.1%) presented for the first time with symptomatic DVT i.e. 17 in the first trimester, 6 in the second and 9 in the third trimester of pregnancy. Nine had history of fetal loss while in the remaining twenty three there was no history of fetal loss.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The evaluation of both acquired and heritable thrombophilia showed a conglomeration of thrombophilia in this group when compared to 100 normal pregnant women who have given birth to at least one healthy baby with no history of fetal death, DVT or other obstetrical complications. The relative risks for all the antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) studied i.e lupus anticoagulant (LA), IgG\/IgM antibodies for cardiolipin (ACA), \u03b22 glycoprotein 1 (\u03b22 GP 1) and annexin V were significantly higher in women with pregnancy associated DVT (RR 7.4 95% CI 4.3\u201311.3 P &lt; 0.05). Among the genetic thrombophilia markers studied, Protein S (PS) deficiency was the strongest risk factor (RR 5.00 95% CI 3.02\u20135.00 P &lt; 0.05) followed by factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation (RR 4.57 95% CI 2.23\u20134.57 P &lt; 0.05) and PAI 4G\/4G homozygosity (RR 3.24 95% CI 1.85\u20135.12 P &lt; 0.05). Protein C (PC) and endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) 23 bp insertion polymorphism was also increased in the patient group as compared to controls but the difference was not statistically significant. The MTHFR C677T, fibrinogen gene \u03b2448 Arg\/Lys polymorphisms were not significantly different from the normal controls, while antithrombin III (AT III) deficiency and PT G20210A polymorphism were absent in both controls and patients. Two or more risk factors were present in 22 out of 32 cases (68.75%).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>We conclude that the prevalence of DVT in India is more or less similar to other reports published and both acquired and heritable thrombophilia show strong association with DVT associated with pregnancy.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1477-9560-5-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,7,4]],"date-time":"2007-07-04T18:13:27Z","timestamp":1183572807000},"update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Deep venous thrombosis in the antenatal period in a large cohort of pregnancies from western India"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Sonal","family":"Vora","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kanjaksha","family":"Ghosh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shrimati","family":"Shetty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vinita","family":"Salvi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Purnima","family":"Satoskar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"71_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"744","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1986.03380060070028","volume":"256","author":"National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference","year":"1986","unstructured":"National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference: Prevalence of venous thrombosis and embolism.
