Popis: Background Dabigatran etexilate (DE) appears to ensure similar efficacy for stroke prevention in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the benefit of reducing major bleeding was not seen in diabetics. Thus, we aimed to investigate the anticoagulant response to DE and the biological predictors of this response using an experimental DM model. Methods Six control rats (C), 8 DE-treated controls (CD), 5 diabetics (D), and 8 DE-treated diabetics (DD) were investigated. Plasma glucose (GLU), triglycerides, total cholesterol (CHOL), high- and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and plasma creatinine were measured. Correlations were ascertained with the diluted thrombin time (dTT). Results When corrected for similar DE intake, dTT was significantly higher in DD compared to CD (p
