title: Effect of ingestion of glucose on fibrinolytic activity and prothrombin time in diabetic and non-diabetic persons.
abstract: Effect of ingestion of 50 g of glucose on euglobulin clot lysis time and prothrombin time was studied in 14 diabetic and 12 non-diabetic persons. There was no significant change in euglobulin clot lysis time and prothrombin time after ingestion of glucose in the non-diabetic group. In the diabetic group, ingestion of glucose resulted in significant increase in euglobulin clot lysis time at the end of one hr which returned to initial level at the end of two hours even though blood glucose level at two hrs was still higher than fasting level. Increase in clot lysis time has no correlation to the blood glucose level. There was no significant change in prothrombin time after glucose ingestion.
