SummaryA case of hypercoagulability syndrome in a 35 years old male is reported. An abnormal heparin resistance was found which could be defined by means of a heparin clot-inhibition test as a deficiency in heparin co-factor. The required anticoagulant doses of heparin were forty times as high as in cases with intact heparin co-factor. The factor seemed to be used up in the process of coagulation, as plasma, but not serum, was able to correct the deficiency in vitro. Plasma infusions were helpful for four days, but a complete recovery was achieved only after an intensive course of fever therapy.The phenomenon of blood clotting should be regarded as a dynamic process which is facilitated by an array of clot promoting factors and opposed by a system of natural anticoagulants.

SummaryThe plasmas of six patients with prolonged activated partial thromboplastin times were studied in detail. In five of the six, the Russell’s viper venom and prothrombin times were likewise prolonged. Five of the patients had documented systemic lupus erythematosus; one lacked the necessary criteria for this diagnosis. On quantitation, factor XI was decreased in all six; factors X and XII were diminished in five of the six. When tested for inhibitory activity, plasma from each of the patients prolonged the celite eluate inhibition test for factor XII and/or XI inhibition. In the formation of the Xa-V-phospholipid-Ca2+ complex (prothrombinase), factors X and Xa were inhibited to a greater degree than factor V or the phospholipid. Finally, each plasma was isofocused, the inhibitory fractions were identified and the clotting factor specificity of each inhibitory peak was determined.Fractions inhibitory against factors XI and XII isofocused with the IgG in each patient’s plasma. Based on the data presented from these six patients, the “lupus inhibitor” is in fact a heterogeneous collection of inhibitors directed against factors XII, XI and X rather than a homogeneous entity.
