Biphasic transmittance waveform in the APTT coagulation assay is due to the formation of a Ca++-dependent complex of C-reactive protein with very-low–density lipoprotein and is a novel marker of impending disseminated intravascular coagulation

TL;DR: Clinically, the biphasic waveform (BPW) better predicts for DIC than either CRP or triglyceride alone and may have pathophysiological implications because CRP can be detected in the VLDL fraction from sera of patients with the BPW, and the V LDL fraction has enhanced prothrombinase surface activity.
