Changes of blood coagulation in 32 cases of SLE were investigated. Abnormalities frequently found were elevation of blood fibrinogen, FDP, V111R: Ag levels, prolonged or shortened KPTT time, and depressed AT-III value. Half of the patients with SLE showed laboratory changes compatible with the diagnostic criteria of DIC, but acute DIC was encountered clinically only in 2 cases hypercoagulation state or hypercoagulation with lower fibrinolysis, however were frequently seen. Lupus anticoagulant were detected in 6 patients and deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity in 1 patient. Examination of blood coagulation in patients with SLE was, therefore, of clinical importance.

Twenty cases of primary nephrotic syndrome were treated with urokinase at a dosage of 60,000 units per day for two successive weeks. The results showed that after treatment the concentrations of fibrinogen, urine FDP, alpha 2-plasma inhibitor and plasminogen were significantly decreased (P value less than 0.01, less than 0.01, less than 0.001, less than 0.005 respectively). The concentration of antithrombin III was significantly increased (P less than 0.05). It is suggested that the treatment obviously increased the fibrinolytic activity and improved the hypercoagulated state. The clinical data showed that in addition to decrease of proteinuria and obvious increase of urine volume, the clinical manifestations and laboratory parameters showed no significant difference. Further study on the dosage and indications of urokinase is needed and the activity of coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with deep vein thrombosis of lower extremities was also discussed.
