Blood coagulant and fibrinolytic function relates risk of thrombosis: risk factor of cardiovascular disease, which is affected by alcohol consumption habit. Abnormal blood coagulant and fibrinolytic function is reported in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Present research suggests the importance of collecting the information from women, of opportunity that drink alcohol more than usual. Moreover, we reported that urinary albumin, a glomerular dysfunction marker correlates with high normal D-dimer, a fibrinolytic marker in men and women; low glomerular filtration rate and positive for urinary albumin associates with high normal coagulant marker; diabetes mellitus and current smoking associates with high normal marker of microvascular sclerosis in non-chronic kidney disease women.
