2. Fig. 1
Study protocol: Mean time after induction of anesthesia for all 18 patients is indicated on the abscissa. Blood samples were obtained at eight points: before induction of anesthesia (T1), just before heparinization and proximal clamping (T2), just before proximal clamp was removed (T3), 10 minutes after clamp was shifted to graft for performance of distal anastomosis (T4), 30 (T5) and 60 (T6) minutes after all clamps were removed and lower extremities perfused, and 180 (3 hours, T7) and 720 (12 hours, T8) minutes after operation was completed. Duration of proximal and distal clamping is indicated by dark and light shading, respectively.

Schematic version of fibrinolytic system. t-PA is major enzyme responsible for cleavage of plasminogen, and PAI-1 is its major inhibitor. α2-AP binds to and inactivates plasmin. Plasmin degrades fibrinogen, fibrin, and formed clot, yielding FDP and D-dimers.
