Thrombophilia genetic mutations and their relation to disease severity among patients with COVID-19.

Objectives: Patients with COVID-19 infection appear to develop virus-induced hypercoagulability resulting in numerous thrombotic events. The aim of the present study was to determine the relationship between the thrombophilia genes mutations (prothrombin G20210A, factor V Leiden, and methyltetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR)) and the severity of COVID-19 patients.

Design: Prospective cross-sectional study.
