Core Tip |
In this case-control study, we found that plasma level of factor XI (FXI:Ag) was significantly higher in patients with deep venous thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism (PE) compared with those with only DVT. In addition, using the 95th percentile of FXI:Ag as cut-off values, a higher plasma level of FXI:Ag was associated with unstable DVT, as shown by the prevalence of PE in patients with DVT. Since the majority of PE is caused by thrombus that falls out from unstable DVT, these findings might suggest that a higher plasma level of FXI:Ag could be a marker for unstable DVT. |
