[16] An increase in fibrinolytic activity has been shown by increased levels of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), decreased euglobulin lysis time, increased fibrin plate lysis, increased fibrin degradation products (FDPs), increased alpha-2 plasmin inhibitor-plasmin complexes, decreased plasminogen, and increased degradation of alpha chains of fibrinogen.
