2006
The aim of this paper was to establish the physiologic changes in the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems during normal pregnancy.One-hundred and twenty normal pregnant women were investigated in a longitudinal study involving 3 measurements: blood samples were collected at 12, 24 and 36 weeks of gestation and were assayed for prothrombin time, antithrombin III (ATIII) activity, protein C activity, protein S (PS) activity, prothrombin fragments 1+2, type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor activity, tissue plasminogen activator antigen, plasminogen, activated protein C resistance, factors VII and VIII levels and D dimer. Student t-test, one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Fisher test we…

AbstractData from the Italian Hemophilia Centres were collected to perform a retrospective survey of joint arthroplasty in patients with severe hemophilia. Twenty-nine of 49 hemophilia centers reported that 328 of the 347 operations were carried out in 253 patients with severe hemophilia A (HA) and 19 in 15 patients with severe hemophilia B (HB). When results were normalized to the whole Italian hemophilia population (1770 severe HA and 319 severe HB), patients with HA had a 3-fold higher risk of undergoing joint arthroplasty (odds ratio [OR], 3.38; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.97-5.77; P < .001). These results were confirmed after adjustment for age, HIV, hepatitis C virus (HCV), and…
