Elevated thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) or decreased serum albumin levels suggest heightened vascular permeability in disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In such a situation, plasma antithrombin III (AT-III) may decrease because of the leakage. We thus examined whether AT-III activity
The present study analyzed the incidence and clinical features of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) developed in association with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Two hundred thirty-six patients with newly diagnosed NHL were admitted to our institute since Jul. 2008 to Dec. 2014. Coagulation
The pathogenesis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in the early stage after burn injury remains still unclear. We investigated 12 burn injured patients by serial determination of anti-thrombin III (AT-III) activities and thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT) levels. Of these patients
Thrombocytopenia (TCP) may cause severe and life-threatening bleeding. While this may be prevented by platelet transfusions, transfusions are associated with potential complications, do not always work (platelet refractory) and are not always available. There is an urgent need for a synthetic
OBJECTIVE
Cirrhosis is commonly associated with haemostatic dysfunction. The similarities of laboratory tests of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) to those found in cirrhosis has led to the belief that DIC is a feature of the haemostatic failure of cirrhosis.
METHODS
The aim of this study
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the accuracy of point-of-care tests for the diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in dogs and assess the correlation and agreement of results between point-of-care and laboratory tests in the evaluation of hemostatic function.
METHODS
Prospective case
Complication of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a determinant of the prognosis for patients with sepsis. The purpose of this study was to find DIC-related peptides in blood for prediction and early diagnosis of DIC in patients with sepsis. The participants were 20 patients with
Heparin cofactor II (HCII) is a glycoprotein in human plasma which inactivates thrombin rapidly in the presence of heparin or dermatan sulfate. We have developed a functional assay for HCII in which inhibition of thrombin by plasma is determined in the presence of dermatan sulfate. The assay is
A coagulopathy resembling disseminated intravascular coagulation may occur in systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. We have seen this in seven patients with three different circumstances of disease activity or drug treatment. In one patient, a coagulopathy was not associated with drug therapy, and
To estimate the degree of coagulopathy in abdominal sepsis, we measured the plasma levels of prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 (F1 + 2), thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT) and plasmin-alpha 2-plasmin inhibitor complex (PIC) by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 38 patients with disseminated
We have attempted to determine whether depressed plasma plasminogen and alpha2 plasmin inhibitor (or alpha2 antiplasmin) activity is, as a result of consumption coagulopathy, a specific finding of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in septic patients. The hemostatic parameters of 139
We investigated whether depressed plasma antithrombin and protein C activity, considered as a specific finding of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), is due to consumption coagulopathy in septic patients with DIC. An analysis of hemostatic parameters was performed in 139 septic patients
The maintenance of depletion of antibody (Ab) reactive with Galalpha1-3Gal (Gal) on pig vascular endothelial cells by the intravenous (i.v.) infusion of a synthetic Gal conjugate has been proposed as a means of delaying Ab-mediated rejection of transplanted pig organs in primates. We have therefore
Fibrinogen content was determined for each of 50 units of citrate-dextrose-phosphate (CPD)-preserved whole blood, packed red blood cells reconstituted with 250 ml. of saline, and packed red cells reconstituted with 250 ml. of purified plasma protein fraction (PPF). The total protein and albumin were
Subnormal concentrations of alpha 2 Antiplasmin (alpha 2 AP) in liver cirrhosis may be due to an impaired hepatic synthesis and/or to a fibrinolysis activation in disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In order to clarify this problem, in 26 cirrhotic patients (15 compensated and 11
