Presentation
This present study brings the frequency of heterozygous alpha 2-AP deficient patients with a bleeding tendency to 13 out of 59 heterozygotes reported in the literature. [unboundmedicine.com]
– In this article the clinical importance of α2-antiplasmin is demonstrated by presenting the history of a male aged 19 years suffering from α2-antiplasmin deficiency. [ntvg.nl]
Written for a multidisciplinary audience, this revision presents current data on antithrombotic therapy including warfarins and heparin, delivers practical techniques for diagnosing and treating bleeding and clotting disorders, and includes all topics [books.google.com]
Heterozygotes usually do not present with bleeding disorders Homozygotes may present with moderate to severe bleeding Bleeding is usually posttraumatic rather than spontaneous Thrombotic risk Elevated levels of PAI-1 may be associated with venous or [arupconsult.com]

After these results, aprotinin was withdrawn from the market in 2008, but in 2011 the Canadian Health authorities [ 55 ] reviewed the BART trial results and authorized aprotinin in coronary bypass graft surgery. [aneskey.com]

Low levels have been found in fulminant hepatic failure and a value of less than 20% is associated with poor prognosis [17]. However, FV may be raised in patients with acute infection. [saudijgastro.com]
This is particularly true in cases of intracranial hemorrhage which represent a serious anticoagulant-related bleeding complication, even though there is no solid evidence from literature of an improvement in prognosis [ 116, 117 ]. [aneskey.com]
The prognosis of patients with reductions in antithrombin as part of other systemic disorders depends on the underlying disorder. The frequency of arterial thrombotic complications is low in patients with antithrombin deficiency. [emedicine.medscape.com]
