“…Previous studies have identified rs709932 and rs1303 as PiM2 and PiM3 variants, respectively [30][31][32]. In that context, despite these alleles are considered as "normal", in a Tunisian population, PiM2 allele has been identified as a risk factor for COPD with higher frequency in COPD patients than controls [33].…”

“…11 Recently, genetic defect involving the Alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) gene has been described in patients with ASA; presence of higher homozygote A1AT rs1303 (PiM3M3) variant may be associated with ASA development. 12 ASA may result from congenital malformation of the atrial septum involving the fossa ovalis region or the entire septum, inherent deficiency in connective tissue, or may be secondary to interatrial pressure difference. 2,3,13 ASA may be asymptomatic, or may show increased predisposition to migraine, 14,15 arrhythmias including atrial fibrillation, 16 thrombus formation within the aneurysmal sac, 2,17 and embolic stroke.…”
