초록

Leiden), no mutation was detected in either group. Allele frequencies of A2379G and G2391 A mutations were not significantly different between CAD patients and controls. Non-Caucasian populations have a considerably lower factor Ⅴ Leiden allele frequency than Caucasian populations. Thus, it may be due to differences in the genetic background as well as environmental factors.
