r – Pearson correlation coefficient; r-time – reaction time (min); k-time – clotting time (min); α-angle (degrees); G – clot strength (dynes/cm2); MA – maximum amplitude (millimeters); BMI – body mass index; CRP – C-reactive protein; ESR – erythrocyte sedimentation rate; PLT – platelet count; aPTT – activated partial thromboplastin time; INR – international normalized ratio. Significant correlations and p-values are marker in bold.
