Abstract |
Background and Purpose: Among the many factors having influence on seasonal incidence of thrombotic disease, we studied the seasonal variation of fibrinolytic activity, which might be thought to have influence on seasonal incidence of thrombotic disease.
Subject and Method: Seasonal plasma tissue type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and
euglobulin fibrinolytic activity (EFA) were measured in 18 male and 22 female normal
volunteers during a year. Result: The level of t-PA was higher in winter than in spring
(p<0.05), but was not significantly different in the other couples of four seasons. The
level of EFA was higher in winter than in summer and in autumn (p<0.01), and was
slightly higher in winter than in spring without significance. The level of EFA was
higher in spring than in summer (p<0.05). There was no correlation between the level
of t-PA and that of EFA in any of the seasons. Conclusion: The fibrinolytic activity is
higher at lower temperature than at higher temperature. Thus, it seems that a rise in
fibrinolytic activity in cold weather counters certain changes which make a thrombotic
event. |
