“…23 Several studies revealed significant inter-ethnic differences in CYP2C19*2 variants. Approximately similar inferences of our results were reported among Beninese population 24 and Zimbabwean population, 25 but less frequency occurred among Ghanaian population (6%), 26 Tunisian population (9%), 27 and Egyptians (4%). 28 Significantly higher frequencies were reported among Japanese (19-23%), Chinese (15%), and Koreans (13%).…”

“…The great divergence was observed among European, Asian and South African population [ 46 ]. Another study of Abdelhedi et al, focused on the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 variants implicated in the metabolism of anticoagulant response, concluded that Tunisians were similar to Europeans and Middle Easterners with regard to the allelic frequencies [ 27 ]. Pairwise Fst values of clinically relevant VIP variants, in our study, also revealed a more similarity between Tunisian, Tuscan and European populations (CEU).…”

“…These common polymorphisms were shown to confer a high risk towards over-anticoagulation, predisposing the individuals carrying these polymorphisms to hemorrhagic incidents [ 22 ]. In addition, a variable response to beta-blockers used in the treatment of hypertension, including propranolol [ 23 ], metoprolol, atenolol [ 24 ] and clopidogrel [ 25 , 26 ] was observed in patients of European and African origins which can trigger a stroke [ 27 , 28 ]. Other serious adverse outcomes of drugs in MetS are reported such as sudden death, bleeding events, myopathy, [ 2 , 20 , 27 , 29 ].…”

“…Ethnicity significantly affects distributions of variants [ 124 ] and contributes to differences in MAF reported for populations outside of the MENA region for each of CYP2C9 [ 48 , 50 , 53 , 57 , 65 , 67 , 70 , 139 ], CYP2C19 [ 27 , 53 , 57 , 67 , 140 ], and MDR1 C3435T [ 132 , 141 , 142 ]. This emphasizes the importance of population-specific studies assessing genetic polymorphisms.…”
