It seems likely that the interaction of hemophilic joint damage and age-related arthropathy contributes to a combined effect in the adult patients previously reported. 14, 20 The present survey is limited mainly by the small numbers of patients presenting [haematologica.org]
It simply means that this specific mutation has not been found, although other mutations may be present. [clevelandheartlab.com]
The MTHFR A1298C variant is also associated with increased homocysteine and lowered plasma folate levels when present in combination with the C677T mutation. This test detects the above described mutations in Factor II gene. [ayassbioscience.com]
