title: [Genetic polymorphism and risk of arterial thrombosis in patients with atrial fibrillation].
abstract: This study revealed the importance of 6 genetic determinants (accounting for predisposition to thrombophilia) as risk factors of thromboembolic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The occurrence of A-allele of FGB gene of patients with complicated form of AF was shown to be significantly higher compared with controls. Carriage of FGB-455A, grade II mitral regurgitation, and AF longer than 48 hours are assumed to be independent predictors of thromboembolic stroke.
