| Interpretive Data: |
#ExistInterpData>Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1(PAI-1) has diurnal variation, with higher concentration in the morning and decreased concentration in the afternoon. PAI-1 is also an acute phase reactant. The reference interval was established from fasting samples drawn between 8 am and 12 pm.
This assay was designed primarily to identify elevated PAI-1 concentrations, which are thought to be a thrombotic risk factor. Concentrations below 2.0 IU/mL are not accurately quantified by this assay. A test result of less than 2.0 IU/mL is not diagnostic of PAI-1 deficiency and may be seen in normal individuals.
