Genetic landscape of thrombophilia in recurrent miscarriages.

The etiology of recurrent miscarriage (RM) is extremely heterogeneous, encompassing genetic, immunological, anatomical, endocrine, thrombophilic, infectious, and uterine abnormalities. Thrombophilia is a major contributor to pregnancy complications, potentially harming the fetus and jeopardizing the continuation of pregnancy. Therefore, successful pregnancy outcomes depend on maintaining a delicate balance between coagulation and fibrinolytic factors, crucial for ensuring the adjustment of the basal plate to facilitate adequate placental perfusion. Despite numerous studies shedding light on the role of thrombophilic factors and genetic variations in RM, the exact pathogenesis remains unclear. It is imperative to systematically rule out thrombophilia and other related factors responsible for pregnancy disorders and RMs to guide appropriate and active management strategies. Addressing thrombophilia continues to present challenges in terms of effective treatment. The current review aims to address the heterogeneity of RM as a therapeutic challenge, emphasizing the need for standardized diagnostic tests and welldesigned multicenter research trials to gather robust, evidence-based data on thrombophilic causes of RM and provide effective treatment. The goal is to enhance the understanding of thrombophilic factors and genetic landscapes associated with RM through various approaches, including candidate gene studies, genome-wide association studies, and high-throughput sequencing. Meta-analyses have underscored the significance of genetic aberrations in RM, highlighting the necessity for identifying critical mutations implicated in the etiopathogenesis of miscarriages to pave the way for implementation of targeted clinical therapies.
