| D-dimer |
D-dimer is an end product derived from plasmin-mediated degradation of crosslinked fibrin clots. D-dimer measurement has proved to be a sensitive marker for the evaluation of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In addition, D-dimer can effectively rule out those patients with a low or a moderate probability of venous thromboembolism (VTE) such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE).

| D-dimer a. |
an immunoassay for the fibrin degradation product D dimer. Levels are elevated in deep venous thrombosis, acute myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, unstable angina, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Called also D-dimer test.

| d-xylose absorption t. |
(for differential diagnosis in malabsorption syndromes): after the oral administration to a fasting adult of 25 g (or sometimes 5 g) of D-xylose dissolved in 250 mL of water, followed immediately by an additional 250 mL of water, the amount excreted in the urine during a 5-hour period is determined. Since poor renal function may also result in low xylose absorption, blood levels are also determined at two hours. Normally, more than 4.0 g of xylose should be excreted over the 5-hour period; less than this amount suggests intestinal malabsorption. Blood values are normally more than 25 mg xylose per 100 mL of blood.
