The antithrombin III (AT III) activity and the AT III concentration were investigated in 62 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). To identify the reactant pattern of AT III in postaggressive situations, we also determined labile and acute phase proteins. Firstly, 29 patients were nourished orally and then 33 patients were fed by i.v. hyperalimentation (additional caloric intake of approximately 1,000 cal). AT III activities and concentrations as well as prealbumin and retinol-binding protein decreased concomittantly and significantly whereas haptoglobin, C-reactive protein and fibrinogen increased significantly after AMI. The changes cannot be interpreted as being alterations of the haematocrit. The alterations of AT III correlated significantly with the changes of labile proteins but not with the acute phase reactant proteins. The AT III decrease in the postinfarctional phase may promote a prethrombotic state. In In addition it can be concluded from our results that AT III reacts as (nutritive-dependent) labile protein, which is lowered in postaggressive situation and does not increase as an acute phase reactant. This is in accordance with results from recent animal experiments.

A 69-year-old woman was admitted with apoplexy after operation of mitral valve stenosis and gastrectomy due to a gastric ulcer. In June 1994, her condition gradually worsened after acute pneumoniae in her right lung. Intravenous hyperalimentation with cimetidine administration was started to improve her undernourishment, because she had a history of gastric ulcer. However, after 10 days from the start of cimetidine therapy, anemia progressed rapidly. Biochemical examinations revealed that the serum indirect bilirubin and LDH levels were elevated and no serum haptoglobin was detected. These results indicated the development of hemolytic anemia, but at that time we could not clarify the reason. In October 1994, thrombocytopenia gradually progressed, and we halted the administration of cimetidine to ranitidine. Both hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia was dramatically improved after cessation of cimetidine administration. We then changed the drug from cimetidine, however the same phenomena have appeared again. The patient was in stable condition, after cessation of H2-blockers administration. The complication of hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia associated with H2-blocker administration in Japan.
