The factor VII-activating protease (FSAP) variant Marburg I is known to attenuate the profibrinolytic system in vitro and was recently shown to be a significant predictor for the evolution and progression of carotid stenosis. The objective of this case-control study was to assess FSAP Marburg I's role in the occurrence of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The frequency of FSAP Marburg I was significantly increased in patients with a history of WE (117 of 213 patients, 8.0%, P = .014) or idiopathic WE (12 of 103 patients, 11.7%, P = .002) compared to healthy controls (5 of 213 controls, 2.3%). Logistic regression analysis confirmed FSAP Marburg I to be an independent risk factor for WE (odds ratio, 3.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2-10.0) and idiopathic WE (odds ratio, 6.2; 95% CI, 2.0-18.9).
