Residual vein thrombosis and onset of post-thrombotic syndrome: Influence of the 4G/5G polymorphism of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 gene
2013
Abstract Background Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is the most important inhibitor of plasminogen activator. The functional 4G/5G polymorphism of the gene coding for PAI-1 may affect PAI-1 plasmatic activity, influencing the imbalance between coagulation and fibrinolysis cascades. In this prospective cohort analytic study, we investigated the role of this single nucleotide polymorphism in the persistence of thrombotic lesion and the occurrence of post-thrombotic syndrome. Patients/Methods In a group of 168 patients with post-surgical deep vein thrombosis of the legs, we analyzed the 4G/5G polymorphism in the promoter of PAI-1 gene and plasmatic PAI-1 activity. Enrolled patients w…

Background and Objectives: Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a fibrinolytic system enzyme whose role in various fibrinolytic processes is currently unknown. In clinical manifestations of pleural liquids of diverse etiology, various levels of fibrinolytic activity can be observed&mdash
