Ma. Myagkova et al., A COMPARATIVE-ANALYSIS OF ANTITHROMBIN-II I AND ITS ANTIBODIES CONCENTRATIONS IN HEALTH AND DISEASE, Gematologia i transfuziologia, 42(6), 1997, pp. 15-18
Parallel measurements were made of antithrombin III and natural antibo
dies to it in the serum of donors and patients. Latex agglutination an
d enzyme immunoassay were used. These parameters were found diminished
in 30% and 50% of patients with ischemic heart disease and peritoniti
s, respectively. The fall of the above concentrations correlated with
clinical symptoms and are diagnostically significant.
