Plama-thromboglobulin concentrations in diabetes mellitus.
Abnormally high plasma-concentrations of the platelet protein thromboglobulin were demonstrated in a group of 72 diabetic patients. The highest concentrations were found in patients with clinical evidence of tissue damage. Many diabetic patients, without such complications have elevated thromboglobulin levels, and this blood abnormality may predate recognisable clinical lesions.
