H Anger

On healthy individuals fibrin(ogen) split products cannot be demonstrated in the blood. Catabolic products of fibrin and fibrinogen appear in the blood in case of general fibrinolysis, consumption coagulopathy with secondary fibrinolysis as well as local fibrin films with secondary fibrinolysis. The regular routine determination of fibrin(ogen) split products in serum or urine may indicate starting complications of many diseases. The appearance of these split products in case of renal affections indicates acute and active processes on the kidneys themselves; fibrin films appear in case of acute and chronic glomerulonephritis, casting-off crises on renal transplants, EPH gestosis, renal phlebothrombosis, hemolytic-uremic syndrom and occasionally urinary tract infections. The demonstration of fibrin(ogen) split products in serum or urine allows the following conclusions: a) acute and active process on the kidneys themselves; b) HMWS in urine indicate a fibrin film in the kidneys; c) an immediate beginning of an anticoagulation therapy; d) good possibilities to judge the therapeutic effect and by this the further progress of disease.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007122	Immunoelectrophoresis	A technique that combines protein electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. In this procedure proteins are first separated by gel electrophoresis (usually agarose), then made visible by immunodiffusion of specific antibodies. A distinct elliptical precipitin arc results for each protein detectable by the antisera.
D007223	Infant	A child between 1 and 23 months of age.	Infants
D007674	Kidney Diseases	Pathological processes of the KIDNEY or its component tissues.	Disease, Kidney,Diseases, Kidney,Kidney Disease
D008970	Molecular Weight	The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule.	Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D011225	Pre-Eclampsia	A complication of PREGNANCY, characterized by a complex of symptoms including maternal HYPERTENSION and PROTEINURIA with or without pathological EDEMA. Symptoms may range between mild and severe. Pre-eclampsia usually occurs after the 20th week of gestation, but may develop before this time in the presence of trophoblastic disease.

D011247	Pregnancy	The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH.	Gestation,Pregnancies
D011379	Prognosis	A prediction of the probable outcome of a disease based on a individual's condition and the usual course of the disease as seen in similar situations.	Prognostic Factor,Prognostic Factors,Factor, Prognostic,Factors, Prognostic,Prognoses
D004211	Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation	A disorder characterized by procoagulant substances entering the general circulation causing a systemic thrombotic process. The activation of the clotting mechanism may arise from any of a number of disorders. A majority of the patients manifest skin lesions, sometimes leading to PURPURA FULMINANS.
