Exogenous Magnesium Chloride Reduces the Activated Partial Thromboplastin Times of Lupus Anticoagulant-Positive Patients. [PDF]
The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) assay is a basic hemostatic assay based on the time it takes for clots to form in plasma samples after the addition of calcium chloride. It is used to screen for various coagulation disorders.

Anti‐β2‐glycoprotein I and anti‐prothrombin antibodies cause lupus anticoagulant through different mechanisms of action [PDF]
The presence of lupus anticoagulant (LA) is an independent risk factor for thrombosis. This laboratory phenomenon is detected as a phospholipid‐dependent prolongation of the clotting time and is caused by autoantibodies against beta2‐glycoprotein I ...
