Abstract
Hypoprothrombinemia was encountered in 105 patients including cases of vitamin K deficiency, liver disease, newborns, Dicumarol-type drug therapy and a few miscellaneous disorders. The findings stress the association of acquired hypoprothrombinemia with deficiencies proconvertin and PTC and suggest that these three proteins are formed in the liver and that vitamin K is essential to their production.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
