Analysis of plasma coagulation function in male Tibetan population with different hemoglobin content in Tibet / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the correlation between blood coagulation function and hemoglobin(Hb) content in male Tibetan population in Tibet by analyzing and comparing the indexes of blood coagulation function in male Tibetan population with different Hb contents, so as to provide the basis for formulating blood donation criteria and blood component quality standard suitable for high altitude area. 【Methods】 Male Tibetans in Tibet during November 2018 to January 2019 were randomly selected and divided into three groups according to the Hb content. The healthy male volunteers in plain area were taken as the control. The plasma PT, APTT, TT, Fg, coagulation factor Ⅱ(FⅡ), FⅤ, FⅦ, FⅧ, FⅨ, FⅩ, FⅪ, FⅫ and protein C(PC) content of each group were measured and compared. 【Results】 The Fg was not different by groups(P>0.05); PT, APTT and TT in group C (Hb>210 g/L) in Tibet were significantly higher than those in controls [PT( s) 11.48±1.18 vs 13.79±3.73; APTT( s) 36.71±2.93 vs 43.30±4.56; TT( s) 15.77±0.95 vs 17.94±2.43, P0.05), except PC conctent of group A was slightly higher than that of group B. 【Conclusion】 The plasma characteristics of Tibetan male with Hb content more than 210 g/L is different from that in plain and other high altitude area, such as prolonged coagulation time and significantly decreased coagulation factor content. Therefore, it is important to put forward the health examination requirements for blood donors and quality standards for whole blood and blood components suitable for high altitude areas in Tibet.
