Change in ADAMTS13 activity, VWF antigen, VWF/ADAMTS13 ratio, and correlation between ADAMTS13 and VWF. (A) Change in ADAMTS13 activity. (B) Change in VWF antigen. (C) Change in VWF/ADAMTS13 ratio. (D) Correlation between ADAMTS13 activity and VWF antigen. Solid lines represent mean values (SD), and dotted lines represent the native values. Shaded areas represent the normal ranges. *P < 0.01 vs. preoperative value. †P < 0.05 vs. preoperative value. Preop preoperative. ADAMTS13 activity was lower than the normal range through the study period and showed a trend of decrease after the surgery. VWF antigen increased significantly after the surgery. There was a significant increase in VWF/ADAMTS13 ratio after the surgery (P < 0.05). There was a significant inverse correlation between ADAMTS13 activity and VWF antigen (P < 0.05).
