Abstract

Intestinal fistula is one of the common complications of Crohn's disease (CD) that might require surgical treatment. The clinical characteristics and outcomes of CD with intestinal fistula are much different from CD alone. This study was to investigate whether the coagulation status of CD is changed by intestinal fistula. Data were retrospectively analyzed for 190 patients with a definitive diagnosis of CD who were registered at the Jinling Hospital between January 2014 and September 2015. Baseline clinical characteristics and laboratory indices of initial admission and 7 days after intestinal fistula resections were collected. Student's t-test and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test were used to compare differences between the two groups. Compared with CD patients without intestinal fistula, prothrombin time (PT) in patients with intestinal fistula was significantly longer (12.13 ± 1.27 s vs. 13.18 ± 1.51 s, P < 0.001 in overall cohort; 11.56 ± 1.21 s vs. 12.61 ± 0.73 s, P = 0.001 in females; and 12.51 ± 1.17 s vs. 13.37 ± 1.66 s, P = 0.003 in males). Platelet (PLT) count was much lower in intestinal fistula group than in nonintestinal fistula group (262.53 ± 94.36 × 109/L vs. 310.36 ± 131.91 × 109/L, P = 0.009).

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
