Quantitative D-dimer Measurement Protocol

D-dimers were measured in all included patients. Plasma D-dimer was quantitatively measured using a latex agglutination test (STA Liatest D-dimer, Diagnostica Stago, Asnieres-sur-Seine, France). Citrate plasma for D-dimer estimation was obtained by centrifuging at 3500 rpm for 10 minutes. An elevated D-dimer level was defined as ≥ 0.5 mg/L.10 (link)

Evaluating D-dimer Levels for VTE Diagnosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The plasma level of D-dimer was measured with the commercially available NANOPIA® latex agglutination assay kit (Sekisui Medical Company Limited, Tokyo, Japan), based on the same method commonly used for D-dimer assays such as the STA-Liatest D-dimer (Diagnostica Stago, Asnières, France), which contains latex microparticles coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for fragment D–D, in combination with an automated coagulation analyzer, the COAPRESTA 2000 (Sekisui Medical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan).21 (link),22 (link) Concentrations were expressed in micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL), with a D-dimer level ≥1.0 μg/mL representing a positive result. With a cut-off value of 1.0 μg/mL, the sensitivity of the NANOPIA kit for diagnosing VTE was 99.6%.22 (link)

Multivariate Biomarker Assay Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Randox Evidence Investigator Biochip multiple immunoassay system (Randox Laboratories Ltd, Co Antrim, UK) using Li Hep plasma simultaneously measured biomarkers via two panels: Cerebral Array I consisted of IL-6, hFABP and BDNF and Cerebral Array II consisted of CRP, NGAL, sTNFR-1, NSE and TM . All assays underwent reproducibility studies using an internal control of pooled normal Li Hep plasma in addition to manufacturers control materials. Levels of fibrinogen by the Clauss clotting method and D-dimer and VWF antigen by immunoturbidometric assays were measured in citrated plasma using an automated coagulation analyser STA (Sta-Liatest VWF and Sta-Liatest D-Dimer, Diagnostica Stago, Asniers, France). These assays had well defined internal quality control and external control through participation in national quality assurance schemes. Commercial ELISA kits were used to assay human P-selectin (R&D Systems, UK) and PZ (Diagnostica Stago, France). Serum samples were used for anti PC antibodies (CVDefineR, Athera Biotechnologies AB, Stockholm, Sweden), adhering to manufacturers recommendations. The intra- and inter coefficients of variation (CV %) of each assay are shown in Table 1. All assays were performed blind to study status.

D-dimer Assay Cutoffs for VTE Risk

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
D-dimer concentrations were assessed with the quantitative assay routinely used in each participating center, provided it was one of the following: Cobas h232 (Roche Diagnostics; Switzerland), HemosIL D-dimer HS 500 (Instrumentation Laboratory; Milan, Italy), HemosIL D-dimer HS (Instrumentation Laboratory), HemosIL D-dimer (Instrumentation Laboratory), Innovance D-DIMER (Siemens; Deerfield, IL), Sclavo Auto D-dimer (Dasit; Milan, Italy), STA Liatest D-dimer (Diagnostica Stago; Asnieres-sur-Seine, France), and VIDAS D-dimer Exclusion (bioMerieux; Lyon, France). For the assays expressing results as fibrinogen equivalent units, the cutoffs were 350 ng/mL and 500 ng/mL for males and females, respectively; the cutoffs for assays expressing the results as D-dimer units were 175 ng/mL and 250 ng/mL for males and females, respectively. These cutoffs were selected by the study team after a critical evaluation of the Dulcis study results,7 (link) taking into account that (1) patients aged ≥75 years were excluded from the present study (and therefore, there was no need for different cutoff levels according to the age) and (2) male patients are unanimously recognized at higher risk of recurrence than females (for this reason the decided cutoff level was lower for males than females).

D-dimer plasma concentrations were measured with the commercially available NANOPIA® latex agglutination assay kit (Sekisui Medical Company Limited, Tokyo, Japan), based on the same method commonly used for D-dimer assays such as the STA-Liatest D-dimer (Diagnostica Stago, Asnières, France) that contains latex microparticles coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for fragment DD, in combination with an automated coagulation analyzer, the COAPRESTA 2000 (Sekisui Medical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan).28 (link),29 (link) Concentrations were expressed in micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL), with a D-dimer level ≥1.0 μg/mL representing a positive result. With a cut-off value of 1 μg/mL, the sensitivity of NANOPIA D-dimer in diagnosing VTE was 99.6%.28 (link)

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
