Serum fibrin degradation products throughout normal pregnancy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products in the serum of 169 healthy pregnant and 43 healthy non-pregnant subjects of a similar age group showed a significant increase throughout pregnancy, the highest levels being obtained in the third trimester. There was no correlation with plasma fibrinogen levels or euglobulin lysis times. Though these changes may be due to other alterations in pregnancy not primarily associated with fibrinolysis, it is possible that actual fibrinolysis is not decreased in late pregnancy, as has been previously asssumed.

Fibrin degradation products in normal and abnormal pregnancy and parturition.
The levels of fibrin, fibrinogen degradation products (F.D.P.) in the serum were investigated in normal pregnancy and parturition, after caesarean section, and in patients with abruptio placentae, eclampsia, intrauterine death, and post-partum haemorrhage. No significant change occurred during normal pregnancy, but a highly significant increase was found during labour and again during the first...
متن کاملFibrin degradation products in sera of women with normal menstruation and menorrhagia.
Serum concentrations of fibrin degradation products were found to be higher during menstruation than in the intermenstrual phase. Higher concentrations were present in cases of menorrhagia as compared with healthy women and women with various gynaecological disorders but with normal menstrual function. Higher serum concentrations of fibrin degradation products in cases of menorrhagia may indica...
متن کاملSpecific identification of fibrin polymers, fibrinogen degradation products, and crosslinked fibrin degradation products in plasma and serum with a new sensitive technique.
A new method is described for identifying low concentrations of circulating derivatives of fibrinogen and fibrin, even when present in heterogeneous mixtures. This technique is applicable to plasma and serum and uses electrophoresis in 2% agarose in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) followed by immunological identification of separated derivatives, using radiolabeled antifibrinogen a...

The coagulation and fibrinolytic mechanisms were investigated in a group of patients with severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia and the findings were compared with those of healthy women in late pregnancy. In patients with pre-eclampsia the following significant differences were found: (1) greater depression of plasma fibrinolytic activity (euglobulin lysis time) than in normal pregnancy, (2) a hi...
متن کاملMenstrual blood loss and fibrin degradation products.
As part of a large-scale study of menstrual blood loss in the community serum fibrin degradation products were measured soon after menstruation in 331 women. No significant correlation was found between the amount of blood lost and the serum level of fibrin degradation products. These findings conflict with reports suggesting that excessive intrauterine fibrinolysis, which may play a part in me...
