title: [Glycosylated proteins and various hemostatic indices in diabetic retinopathy].
abstract: The changes in the level of glycated proteins and some factors of coagulation were studied in 30 patients with diabetes mellitus--15 with and 15 without diabetic retinopathy. The mean level of glycoalbumin was elevated (2.9 +/- 0.8 mg) HMF (mg protein) without an authentic difference in the two subgroups. Glycohemoglobin was also increased (means--13.6 +/- 1%) in all studied subjects The activity of antithrombin III was high (means--222 +/- 53%) and the concentration--reduced--means--22.1 +/- 2.2 mg%, without authentic difference in the two subgroups. The concentration of alpha-2-macroglobulin, as well as its activity showed no significant deviations. Factor VIII (von Willebrand) was within reference limits (means--97.04 +/- 15.06%) with a tendency to lower values in the group without diabetic retinopathy. Fibrinogen level (means--4.3 +/- 1.2 g) was within the reference range, and FDP--increased in the majority of the examined. A syndrome of intensified latent coagulability, equivalent to chronic decompensated DIC, determined by the basic dismetabolism and non-enzymatic glycating of proteins has been outlined. The changes are more marked in the cases with diabetic retinopathy.
