Justification of Genetic Factors for Predicting the Risk of Acute Bleeding in Peptic Ulcer Disease.

Justification of Genetic Factors for Predicting the Risk of Acute Bleeding in Peptic Ulcer Disease. J Med Life. 2020 Apr-Jun;13(2):255-259 Authors: Grynchuk FV, Dutka II, Panchuk II, Volkov RA, Sheremet MI, Maksymyuk VV, Tarabanchuk VV, Bilyk II, Myshkovskii YM Abstract PAI genotyping for the G43A and 4G/5G polymorphisms was performed in 60 patients with peptic ulcer disease: 12 with an uncomplicated ulcer, 5 with perforation, the rest with ongoing bleeding. Fourteen patients had recurrent bleeding. The 5G/5G and G43A genotypes were not detected in patients with uncomplicated ulcers. All patients with ulcer perforation had the G43G genotype, 60% of patients had the 4G/4G genotype, and the rest of them had the 4G/5G and 5G/5G genotypes. The number of carriers of the 5G allele (86.05%) was higher in patients with bleeding than in ones with ulcer perforation (p=0.036) and ulcer without bleeding (p=0.021, χ2=5.32). The number of carriers of the 5G allele was higher in patients with recurrent bleeding (92.86%) than those without any relapses (82.76%) but there were no statistically significant differences (p=0.27, χ2=0.802). The G43G homozygous genotype was found in 94.12% of patients with peptic ulcer without bleeding, which was statistically significantly higher (p=0.02) than the ones with bleeding. The A allele was observed in 27.91% of patients with bleeding and 8.33% patients without any bleeding (p=0.05). The number of carriers of...
