    Abstract:
    The polymorphisms of the B subunit of coagulation factor XIII (F13B), plasminogen (PLG), complement C6, C7, factor B (BF) and factor I (IF) were studied among 21 unrelated Japanese patients with primary varicose veins (PVV) by isoelectric focusing followed by immunoblotting. The allele frequencies for F13B*2 and IF*A in PVV patients were significantly higher (F13B*2, p = 0.0047; IF*A, p = 0.0006) than those in healthy controls (n = 60). Significant associations of F13B 2 allotype [p = 0.0220, relative risk (RR) = 13.9] and IF A allotype (p = 0.0006, RR = 10.0) with PVV were observed; however, no significant association of PLG, C6, C7 or BF allotype with the disease was found.
