Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Fibrinogen activity (Ac) is widely measured, but fibrinogen antigen (Ag) is measured only in specialized laboratories, so it is difficult to discriminate congenital fibrinogen disorders (CFDs) from acquired hypofibrinogenemia (aHypo). In this study, to screen for CFD phenotypes we adopted novel parameters, |min1|c and Ac/ |min1|c, and compared these with validated Ac, Ag, and Ac/Ag, and previously...
