Serum Concentrations of Angiopoietin-2 and Soluble fms-Like Tyrosine Kinase 1 (sFlt-1) Are Associated with Coagulopathy among Patients with Acute Pancreatitis.

Of interest, in our study, the results of functional coagulation tests, i.e., prothrombin time, APTT and fibrinogen were associated with AP severity on admission and the associations became weaker or non-significant a day thereafter, while the highly significant association between D-dimer and AP severity persisted at 48 h from the onset of AP.
