Are Uterine Fibroids Pro-thrombotic?

In this study we will perform global haemostatic assays such as activated partial thromboplastic time (APTT), and prothrombin time (PT). However, these tests provide information about the haemostatic process until the point of initial fibrin formation and ignore the procedure of thrombin generation\[18\]. In this study we will perform Thrombin Generation studies, Plasma clot Lysis, and RNA sequencing in addition to standard laboratory tests (APTT, PT, FVIII:C, fibrinogen (using Clauss methods), platelet count, liver and renal function tests.
