This study was purposed to investigate the correlation of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen (Fg), coagulation factor VIII (FVIII:C), coagulation factor IX (FIX:C) and to explore the effect of inflammation and coagulation as well as their interaction in DVT and its mechanism. 59 patients with DVT undergoing selective venous ultrasonography and 26 healthy individuals as controls were enrolled in this study. The plasma level of CRP was detected by immunoturbidimetry, FVIII:C, FIX:C levels were determined by a one-stage assay and fibrinogen level was measured by full-automatic biochemical apparatus. The results showed that the mean levels of plasma CRP, Fg, FVIII:C and FIX:C were significantly higher in deep vein thrombosis group than that in controls [CRP (2.67 +/- 0.91) vs (0.14 +/- 0.08) mg/dl; Fg (4.73 +/- 1.36) vs (2.79 +/- 0.66)g/L; FVIII:C (126.71 +/- 28.10) vs (81.35 +/- 20.77)%; FIX:C (81.01 +/- 23.60) vs (70.71 +/- 11.3)%] (p < 0.01), and the level of plasma CRP was strongly correlated with Fg, FVIII:C and FIX:C (r(s) = 0.432, 0.571 and 0.544, p < 0.01). It is concluded that the DVT and inflammation are closely related, increased level of plasma CRP may be a predictor of DVT. Increased plasma levels of Fg, FVIII:C and FIX:C all are important risk factors to DVT. Interaction between inflammation and coagulation promote the incidence of DVT, which may be one of DVT pathogenesis.

Objective: To identify potential mutations of F11 gene in a pedigree affected with hereditary coagulation factor XI (FXI) deficiency and explore its molecular pathogenesis.
Methods: Prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB), coagulation factor VIII activity (FVIIIC), coagulation factor IX activity (FIXC), coagulation factor XI activity (FXIC), coagulation factor XII activity (FXIIC) and lupus anticoagulation (LA) of the proband and eight family members were determined. FXI antigen (FXIAg) was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

The coagulant properties of root bark and root wood extracts of Fagara xanthoxyloides lam plant are reported. Results of an earlier report which showed that the aqueous extract of the root shortened both the PT and PTT of normal and FVIIIC-deficient plasma are confirmed as well as the absence of many such effects on FIXC-deficient plasma. Root bark manifested twice as much potency as an equal concentration of root wood.
