Overview

There is no established system for the classification of [disease name].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method] into [number] subtypes/groups: [group1], [group2], [group3], and [group4].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified into [large number > 6] subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3]. [Disease name] may be classified into several subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3].

OR

Based on the duration of symptoms, [disease name] may be classified as either acute or chronic.

OR

If the staging system involves specific and characteristic findings and features: According to the [staging system + reference], there are [number] stages of [malignancy name] based on the [finding1], [finding2], and [finding3]. Each stage is assigned a [letter/number1] and a [letter/number2] that designate the [feature1] and [feature2].

OR

The staging of [malignancy name] is based on the [staging system].

OR

There is no established system for the staging of [malignancy name].

Classification

Disseminated intravascular coagulation may be classified according to the degree of fibrinolytic activation into the following subtypes/groups[1]:

Suppressed-fibrinolytic-type DIC (DIC with suppressed fibrinolysis) [2][3][4][5]

  • Severe coagulation activation
  • Mild fibrinolytic activation
  • Seen in sepsis mostly
  • Mild bleeding complications
  • Elevated thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) , a coagulation activation marker
  • Mildy elevated plasmin-α2 plasmin inhibitor complex (PIC), a fibrinolysis activation marker
  • Mildly elevated Fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products (FDPs) and D-dimers
  • Normal or only slightly decreased α2 plasmin inhibitor (α2PI)

Enhanced-fibrinolytic-type DIC (DIC with enhanced fibrinolysis)[2][3][4][5]

  • Presents with marked fibrinolysis activation corresponding to coagulation activation
  • Strong activation of fibrinolysis
  • with hardly any elevation in PAI
  • Severe bleeding severe.
  • Elevation in both TAT and PIC
  • Elevated FDPs and D-dimer
  • FDP/D-dimer ratio tends to increase (decrease when expressed as the D-dimer/FDP ratio).
  • Associated with APL, abdominal aortic aneurysm, and prostate cancer.

Balanced-fibrinolytic-type DIC (DIC with balanced fibrinolysis) [2][3][4][5]

  • Presents a balance between coagulation activation and fibrinolytic activation
  • Relatively uncommon bleeding and organ symptoms
  • Seen in solid cancers
