Crotalus atrox venom preconditioning increases plasma fibrinogen and reduces perioperative hemorrhage in a rat model of surgical brain injury. [PDF]
Perioperative bleeding is a potentially devastating complication in neurosurgical patients, and plasma fibrinogen concentration has been identified as a potential modifiable risk factor for perioperative bleeding.

Fibrin D-dimer, markers of coagulation activation and the risk of major ischaemic heart disease in the Caerphilly Study [PDF]
We have previously reported that plasma fibrin D-dimer (a marker of turnover of cross-linked Fibrin) showed a strong and independent association with incident ischaemic heart disease (IHD) in the Caerphilly Study cohort of 1,998 men a-ed 49-65.

Thromboplastin. I. Phospholipid Moiety of Thromboplastin.
SummaryPhosphatidyl ethanolamine and phosphatidyl choline are inactive in the Thromboplastin Generation Test, but they become highly active when present with about 10% phosphatidyl serine. Phospholipids from fresh eggs are inactive, because they contain no phosphatidyl serine.
