A challenging issue in COVID-19 infection: The relationship between PA1-1 and TAFI levels in patients with coagulation disorder: A retrospective and observational study.

COVID-19 disrupts the balance between coagulation and fibrinolysis. Especially in the clinical course of serious disease, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), and tissue plasminogen activator levels increase in association with hypercoagulable state and hypofibrinolysis. This explains the increased incidence of thrombosis seen in COVID-19 infection.
