[Diabetes mellitus and changes in hemostasis: study of the fibrinolytic response of insulin-dependent patients without vascular disease].
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is characterized by a hypercoagulability state and many of these disorders are corrected with adequate metabolic control. The goal of this study was to assess diverse hemostatic and fibrinolytic parameters in 12 insulin-dependent (IDDM) metabolically controlled patients without vascular lesions and in a group of 12 healthy volunteers. A significant difference was observed in the euglobulin lysis time (ELT), after a stress test, since only 3 patients had an adequate fibrinolytic response. These results suggest that the fibrinolytic alterations found in DM are not secondary to metabolic disorders caused by the disease and we can consider that the existence of subclinical alterations of the vascular endothelium would be responsible for these alterations.
