Blood flows through the body in a loop, starting in the heart, which pumps oxygen-rich blood through arteries to the body's tissues. Once the oxygen is used up, the blood returns via veins to the heart to be re-oxygenated in the lungs before the cycle repeats. The direction of blood flow is controlled by valves in the veins and the pumping action of the heart.
A stroke can be caused by a blockage in an artery leading to the brain (ischemic stroke) or by a blood vessel bursting and bleeding into the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). Risk factors for stroke include high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, and high cholesterol.
Blood is pumped from the heart to the rest of the body through arteries. It then travels through capillaries, where oxygen and nutrients are exchanged with tissues, before returning to the heart through veins. This process repeats in a continuous loop to supply the body with oxygen and nutrients while also removing waste products.
The PT test, or prothrombin time test, evaluates how long it takes for blood to clot. It is used to monitor blood's clotting ability and to adjust medication, such as warfarin, that may affect blood clotting. The PT test is commonly ordered to assess clotting function in patients with bleeding disorders, liver disease, or those taking anticoagulant therapy.
DPK stands for "Dried Plasma Kallikrein". It is an enzyme that plays a role in blood clot formation and inflammation in the body.

I wanted to know it too, I found the answer on a website, and her Blood Type is A.
Blood type A differs from other blood types in terms of the antigens present on the surface of red blood cells. Blood type A has A antigens, blood type B has B antigens, blood type AB has both A and B antigens, and blood type O has neither A nor B antigens. This difference is important for blood transfusions and compatibility.
The importance of blood typing is for you to know your blood type in case there is an emergency and you need a blood transfusion. The o type blood can be given to most people regardless of their blood type.
My blood type is O negative. I have blood type that is considered a universal donor. My parents are type AB and type O, so it was not very surprising to have type O.
