Study on prethrombotic state in children with acute viral encephalitis / 实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate whether there is prethrombotic state in acute viral encephalitis.Methods Von willebrand factors (VWF),granule membrane protein-140(GMP-140) and D-dimer were measured in 60 children,30 cases of them had mild acute viral encephalitis, and other 30 cases of them had severe acute viral encephalitis.Results The figures mentioned above had marked difference in children with mild acute viral encephalitis during acute and recovery stage compared with controls.Conclusions Testing the expressive rate of GMP-140 on platelet surface,plasma VWF and D-dimer can find the prethrombotic state immediately. GMP-140,VWF and D-dimer in estimating the severe extent of disease and the prognosis play a major role. J Appl Clin Pediatr,2004,19(6)501-503
