beta-thromboglobulin (beta TG), a platelet-specific protein, was measured in the plasma of 53 healthy subjects (20 men and 33 women), 53 women using estrogen-progestogen contraceptives, 31 patients with cardiac valve disease (including 19 with prosthesis) and 71 patients about to undergo scintigraphy for suspected pulmonary embolism. Compared with levels in healthy subjects, beta TG levels were significantly increased in oral contraceptive users and in cardiac patients with or without prosthesis. High beta TG levels were also found in 20 out of 28 patients with pulmonary embolism confirmed by scintigraphy, but also in some of the .9 lung patients with chronic bronchopulmonary disease. Cardiac patients treated with heparin had higher beta TG levels than non heparin-treated patients, which raises queries about a possible influence of heparin on this particular blood protein.
β-血小板球蛋白（βTG）是一种血小板特异性蛋白，在53名健康受试者（20名男性和33名女性）、53名使用雌激素-孕激素避孕药的女性、31名心脏瓣膜病患者（包括19名有假体的患者）以及71名因疑似肺栓塞即将接受闪烁扫描的患者的血浆中进行了测量。与健康受试者的水平相比，口服避孕药使用者以及有或无假体的心脏病患者的βTG水平显著升高。在28名经闪烁扫描确诊为肺栓塞的患者中，有20名患者的βTG水平也较高，但在一些患有慢性支气管肺病的患者中也有发现。接受肝素治疗的心脏病患者的βTG水平高于未接受肝素治疗的患者，这引发了关于肝素对这种特定血液蛋白可能产生影响的质疑。
