The vWf antigen levels of non-small cell lung cancer patients are not substantially altered from those of normal controls

28374895 (VWF)

Studied the significance of the von Willebrand factor (VWF)/ ADAMTS-13 ratio in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Findings suggest that the imbalance between VWF secretion and ADAMTS-13 may play a role in the hypercoagulability state in advanced NSCLC, and increase of the plasma VWF/ADAMTS-13 ratio may serve as an independent predictive factor for mortality in patients with advanced NSCLC.
