Özet
Background/AimThe Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene codes for protein pyrin, which is among the modulators of inflammasome activity in innate immune cells. It was suggested that there is a relation between MEFV variations and inflammatory diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate MEFV gene variations in the patients with primary dysmenorrhea.MethodsThe prevalence of common MEFV gene variations (M694V, M680I, V726A, E148Q and R202Q) was investigated in 145 young women with primary dysmenorrhea and 135 unrelated healthy controls. MEFV gene variations were genotyped using PCR-based RFLP assay.ResultsNumber of childbirth and marriage were significantly lower in the study group than the controls, respectvely (p < 0.001, p = 0.001). Family history was statistically higher in the patient group (p < 0.001). In total, MEFV genotype and allele frequencies were significantly …
