Two blood samples were collected fiom each subject, one in 3.2% tri-sodium citrate for coagulation investigations and the other in ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) for molecular analysis. _ Protein C, protein S, and antithrombin HI were measured by chromogenic assay. Genomic DNA was extracted from EDTA samples and analysed for the presence of factor V Leiden mutation, prothrombin G20210A mutation, and methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase mutation using polymerase chain reaction- restriction fiagment polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).
