Plasma expression of vWF and cFN following TBI. (A) Plasma vWF measured ≤48 h after injury and (B) >48 h after injury. Plasma vWF was highest in the TH group and was decreased in the TVI group compared to the MRI-negative group at both time points. (C) Plasma cFn measured ≤48 h after injury and (D) >48 h after injury. There were no differences between the 3 MRI groups at the early time point. cFN was significantly increased in the TVI group >48 h after injury. Mann-Whitney tests were used to compare means between groups. ****p ≤ 0.00001; **p ≤ 0.05; nsp ≥ 0.05 (non-significant).
