The authors examined in a group of 165 diabetics and 50 healthy subjects the basal fibrinolytic activity after venostasis and in a selected group of diabetics also after stimulation with adiuretin. They revealed not only a retarded fibrinolytic activity in diabetics with angiopathy, as compared with healthy subjects, but also a significant deterioration of the response in this group to stimuli such as venostasis and adiuretin. The authors draw attention to the fact that changes of the fibrinolytic activity which were more marked in diabetics with angiopathy may be conditioned not only by age, the duration of the disease and the elevated inhibitors of plasma fibrinolysis but also by a poorer release of the tissue activator plasminogen.
