Abstract

Data are reported of changes of the thrombocytic link of hemostasis in 168 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Essential changes were found of the coagulating and fibrinolytic properties of thrombocytes, the severity of which is related to the activity of the pathological process. It is shown that thrombocytopathic changes may be adjunctive criteria for determination of the intravascular coagulopathy.
