From: Platelet function suggests cardioembolic aetiology in cryptogenic stroke
Determination of hypercoagulability and thrombus stability: (A) representative thromboelastogram of kaolin-stimulated citrated whole blood obtained from healthy controls, cryptogenic and cardioembolic stroke patients, as indicated. (B–D) Corresponding scatter plot bar diagrams representing Reaction Time (R), Clot Kinetics (K) and α-Angle, respectively, from 10 healthy volunteers and 10 patients from each stroke group. Data are represented as mean ± SEM of at least 10 different experiments. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01. ns non-significant.
