Siding Options. The popular choice out there is vinyl because theyâre cost effective and easy to install and maintain. Some things to consider with vinyl is that the color can fade, and the siding become brittle with time. For homeowners who prefer to go with wood, there is hardwood, cypress, clapboard, wood shingles, and plywood siding.
Digestive System. Elevated PTT results may be caused by malabsorption, a digestive problem that restricts the amount of nutrients that the body absorbs from food, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
A high PT usually means that there is serious liver damage or cirrhosis. Other things to know: Some patients take a drug called Coumadin (warfarin), which elevates the PT for the purpose of thinning the blood. This is not related to having liver disease because it is the Coumadin causing the PT to be high.
