A randomized prospective study was done to determine whether i.v. 5-methyltetrahydrofolate vs oral folate improved survival in ESRD patients. Homocysteine, CRP, Lp(a), albumin, folates, vitamin B6 and B12 were checked. The 5-MTHF treated group was associated with lowered C reactive protein and higher survival than the folate treated group.

The recurrent pregnancy loss(RPL) usually occurring in the first trimester of gestation and its rate is quite high (15-20% even in full reproductive period) . In 2012, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine Practice Committee issued a statement that defined recurrent pregnancy loss as a disease distinct from infertility defined by two or more failed consecutive pregnancies.approximately 40% of couples will have an etiology identified that could be associated with their loss.
40% of couples will have an etiology identified that could be associated with their loss.Thrombophilia is the tendency to develop thromboses due to inherited defects in the coagulation system.Thrombophilia was identified as a major cause of RPL,Because pregnancy is a hypercoagulable state, thromboembolism is the leading cause of antepartum and postpartum maternal mortality .The four most common genetic markers for thrombophilia are; prothrombin gene mutation(FII, G20210A), methylene tetra hydrofolate reductase mutations (MTHFR ,C677T and A1298C), factor V Leiden (FVL, G1691A) , and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) . --- G20210A --- --- C677T --- --- A1298C ---

Measure: The study will compare the percentage of prothrombin gene and MTHFR gene polymorphisms in cases with recurrent miscarriage and healthy control group. Time: 2 daysFluoropyrimidines are the backbone of chemotherapy regimes used to treat metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). These drugs act in different pathways of folate metabolism altering DNA synthesis mainly by inhibition of the tymidylate synthase. For this reaction the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate acts as cofactor. It has been demonstrated that A1298C and C677T polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene result in reduced enzyme activity that leads to reduced availability of this important cofactor. Hence, we hypothesized that the presence of these polymorphisms are related to the efficacy and toxicity of fluoropyrimidines in patients with CRC.
