Blood Coagulation Changes among Sudanese Patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Abstract: Objective: To assess the blood coagulation changes in patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis (PTB). Methodology: Fifty Patients with PTB were included in this study, in addition to 10 apparently healthy individuals as internal control group. Coagulation parameters of prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), (TT), Platelet count, Hb concentration and ESR were measured in each patient. Results: The mean values for coagulation measures for cases compared to controls were 15.4 1.9 compared to13.4 0.5 for PT (P
