Obesity-Related Derangements of Coagulation and Fibrinolysis: A Study of Obesity-Discordant Monozygotic Twin Pairs
Coagulation and fibrinolytic activities are under strong genetic control. We studied the effects of acquired obesity, independent of genetic factors on coagulation and fibrinolysis activities in obesity‐discordant healthy monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs. Fourteen obesity‐discordant (BMI within‐pair diff...

Zusammenfassung: | Coagulation and fibrinolytic activities are under strong genetic control. We studied the effects of acquired obesity, independent of genetic factors on coagulation and fibrinolysis activities in obesity‐discordant healthy monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs. Fourteen obesity‐discordant (BMI within‐pair difference >3 kg/m2) and 10 concordant (BMI difference |
