Factor Information
Data ID 3843
Factor Plasma TXB2 levels
Description Plasma TXB2 levels were measured by radioimmunoassay. Plasma TXB2 levels in the three groups (control, Rp < or = 10, and Rp > 10) were significantly different (P < .005); the TXB2 levels in the Rp < or = 10 group were significantly higher than the others.
Biomarker NA
Classification E2 (physiological factor - biochemical index)

Application risk assessment
Objective In the present study, we measured the plasma TXB2 concentration to evaluate platelet activation in patients with pulmonary hypertension and congenital heart disease.
p Value <0.005
Conclusion Plasma TXB2 levels were measured by radioimmunoassay. Plasma TXB2 levels in the three groups (control, Rp < or = 10, and Rp > 10) were significantly different (P < .005); the TXB2 levels in the Rp < or = 10 group were significantly higher than the others.
