D-dimer kit with a High FDP/D-Dimer Ratio is Useful for Diagnosing Thrombotic Diseases

Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2022
Introduction Although D-dimer is a useful biomarker of thrombosis, there are many D-dimer kits, with high and low fibrinogen and fibrin degradation products (FDP)/ D-dimer ratios.

Association between D-dimer level and chest CT severity score in patients with SARS-COV-2 pneumonia

Scientific Reports, 2021
The elevated level of D-dimer and its relationship with poor outcomes in SARS-COV-2 pneumonia patients have been demonstrated. In addition to a hypercoagulable state, D-dimer is also a biomarker of inflammation. We investigated the relationship between D-

Assessment of plasma D-dimer level for prognosis, disease progression, and survival in solid malignancies

Saudi Journal for Health Sciences, 2023
Background: D-dimer is a fibrin degradation product (FDP), a small protein fragment present in the blood after a blood clot is degraded by fibrinolysis. Aim: To evaluate the association of D-dimer level with prognosis, disease progression and survival of
