Abstract

We investigated the plasma levels of molecular markers for platelet activity and the thrombotic and fibrinolytic status in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy to determine the activating site of coagulation in these disorders. A thromboembolic event is a serious complication in patients with idiopathic cardiomyopathy. However, the activating site of the coagulation system in idiopathic cardiomyopathy has not been fully investigated. We determined the plasma levels of molecular markers for platelet activity (platelet factor 4 and beta-thromboglobulin), thrombotic status (fibrinopeptide A and thrombin-antithrombin III complex) and fibrinolytic status (D-dimer and plasmin-alpha 2-plasmin inhibitor complex) in 13 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, 17 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and 20 normal subjects. Plasma levels of platelet factor 4, beta-thromboglobulin and plasmin-alpha 2-plasmin inhibitor complex did not differ significantly among the three groups, whereas plasma levels of fibrinopeptide A and thrombin-antithrombin III complex in both patient groups were significantly higher than those in normal subjects. Plasma levels of D-dimer in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy were si...Continue Reading

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.

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.
