  • Title: [Howie's antithrombin activity and thrombin inhibitors in the nephrotic syndrome].
    Author: Campo G, Modena N, Gallo A, Ciaffoni S.
    Journal: Quad Sclavo Diagn; 1985 Mar; 21(1):106-16. PubMed ID: 2414802.
    Abstract:
    A prospective study was carried out on a group of 28 patients affected by nephrotic syndrome in order to compare the antithrombin activity, measured by the technique of Howie, the antithrombin III, measured with chromogenic substrate and by radial immunodiffusion, the alpha 2-macroglobulin and the alpha 1-antitrypsin. An increased level of alpha 2-macroglobulin and of the antithrombin activity, measured by the technique of Howie and a reduction of the level of antithrombin III and of alpha 1-antitrypsin was observed. It is suggested that the increased antithrombin activity is related to the increase of alpha 1-antitrypsin was observed. It is suggested that the increased antithrombin activity is related to the increase of alpha 2-macroglobulin concentration in spite of the simultaneous decrease of antithrombin III.
