The change in Factor X (% of normal) from baseline to 15 weeks was significantly greater in the fish-diet group compared to the control group (p<0.05).
The change in collagen (50 µg/ml) from baseline to 15 weeks was significantly greater in the fish-diet group and the fish-oil group when compared to the controls (p<0.05).
No other significant associations were found between the diet groups with regards to the change in PT (ratio), APTT (ratio), Factor VII (% of normal), Factor X (% of normal), fibrinogen (g/l), prothrombin fragment 1+2 (nmol/L), tissue factor pathway inhibitor (ng/mL), platelet aggregation (%T), ADP (2.0 µmol/L), ADP (5.0 µmol/L), and collagen (50 µg/L).
