Thrombosis in Suspected Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia Occurs More Often with High Antibody Levels  Steven Baroletti, PharmD, MBA, Shelley Hurwitz, PhD, Nicole A.S. Conti, PharmD, John Fanikos, RPh, MBA, Gregory Piazza, MD, Samuel Z. Goldhaber, MD  The American Journal of Medicine  Volume 125, Issue 1, Pages 44-49 (January 2012) DOI: 10.1016/j.amjmed.2011.06.025 Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Association of anti-PF4/heparin antibody level with any arterial or venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The proportion with any thrombosis by 30 days and the proportion with pulmonary embolism are shown as a function of anti-PF4/heparin antibody level. Increases in anti-PF4/heparin antibody level were significantly associated with greater proportions of any thrombosis and pulmonary embolism by 30 days. PE=pulmonary embolism; PF4=platelet factor 4; OD=optical density. The American Journal of Medicine 2012 125, 44-49DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2011.06.025) Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc.
