Congenital thrombophilia in East-Asian venous thromboembolism population : a systematic review and meta-analysis

© 2023 The Author(s)..

Background: Various inherited traits contribute to the overall risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). In addition, the epidemiology of thrombophilia in the East-Asian VTE population remains unclear; thus, we aimed to assess the proportion of hereditary thrombophilia via a meta-analysis.

Methods: Publications from PubMed, EMBASE, web of science, and Cochrane before December 30, 2022, were searched. Studies from Japan, Korea, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Cambodia were included. Congenital thrombophilia was described as diseases including protein C (PC) deficiency, protein S (PS) deficiency, antithrombin (AT) deficiency, factor (F)V Leiden (FVL), and prothrombin G20210A mutations. Studies were selected by 2 reviewers for methodological quality analysis. A random-effects model was used for the meta-analysis, assuming that estimated effects in the different studies are not identical.

Results: Forty-four studies involving 6453 patients from 7 counties/regions were included in the meta-analysis. The prevalence of PC, PS, and AT deficiencies were 7.1%, 8.3%, and 3.8%, respectively. Among 2924 patients from 22 studies, 5 patients were carriers of FVL mutation. Among 2196 patients from 10 studies, 2 patients were carriers of prothrombin G20210A mutation in a Thailand study.

Conclusion: The prevalence of PC, PS, and AT deficiencies was relatively high, while a much lower prevalence of FVL and prothrombin G20210A mutations were identified in East-Asian patients with VTE. Our data stress the relative higher prevalence of PC, PS, and AT deficiencies for thrombophilia in the East-Asian VTE population.
