  • Title: [Hemostasis disorders in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].
    Author: Priĭmak AA, Makinskiĭ AI, Ivanko TP, Makarova VV, Makovetskiĭ VV.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1995; (1):33-5. PubMed ID: 7761377.
    Abstract:
    Coagulation studies in 82 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis showed that latent intravascular coagulation occurs not only in patients with active disease, but also in those with marked residual changes. The level of Cl-esterase inactivator may serve as an indicator of the disease prognosis: if its concentration is low, the prognosis is poor. Total fibronectin was measured in 76 patients with different tuberculosis activity. The results suggest that this protein's blood levels reflect the activity of the specific process in the lungs. Normal fibronectin concentrations indicate cure of tuberculosis.
