Thrombelastography variables in the comparison of control, cirrhosis, and cirrhosis with PVT.
| TEG parameters | Control | Cirrhosis | Cirrhosis with PVT |
|---|---|---|---|
| TEG-CI | 5.20 ± 0.16 | 5.83 ± 0.05a | 6.33 ± 0.21b,c |
| TEG-K (min) | 0.83 ± 0.05 | 0.77 ± 0.05 | 1.10 ± 0.08b,c |
| TEG-MA (mm) | 75.53 ± 1.60 | 75.13 ± 0.26 | 80.80 ± 0.43b,c |
| TEG-R (min) | 3.03 ± 0.21 | 2.07 ± 0.09a | 1.87 ± 0.09b |
| TEG-α (deg) | 74.67 ± 0.45 | 78.67 ± 0.62a | 82.40 ± 1.10b,c |
CI: coagulation index; K: coagulation time; MA: maximum amplitude; R: reaction time; α: alpha angle; PVT: portal vein thrombosis; TEG: thrombelastography. aP < 0.05 between the cirrhosis group and control group. bP < 0.05 between the cirrhosis with PVT group and control group. cP < 0.05 between the cirrhosis with PVT group and cirrhosis group.
