Given the task definition and input, reply with output. In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.

Context: To assess the efficacy of a fixed, low dose of warfarin in lowering factor VII coagulant activity (FVII:C) and to investigate the effects on the plasma coagulation cascade.', 'An open pilot study with two dose levels of warfarin: 1.25 and 2.5 mg day-1 during two consecutive 4-week periods. All subjects received aspirin 75 mg day-1. Prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 (F(1 + 2)), protein C, protein S, FVII:C, factor X and P-prothrombin complex activity (P-PT) were measured at baseline, at 2-week intervals and 4 weeks after end of treatment. Coagulation activation peptide F(1 + 2) was used as a marker of thrombin formation.', 'Twelve male patients with a history of myocardial infarction. Inclusion was made through a written questionnaire.', 'Warfarin 1.25 mg day-1 lowered FVII:C from 113 U dl-1 to 107 U dl-1 (P = 0.025) and F(1 + 2) from 1.60 nmol l-1 to 1.27 nmol l-1 (P = 0.013) but had no effect on protein C or P-PT. A dose of 2.5 mg day-1 induced further lowering of FVII:C (91 U dl-1, P = 0.0042), and also of protein C from 116% to 99% (P = 0.034) and P-PT from 107% to 81% (P = 0.0096) mean values.\Question: Does low-dose warfarin decrease coagulability without affecting prothrombin complex activity?
Warfarin 1.25 mg day-1 seems to exert an anticoagulant effect without reduction in PT or the natural anticoagulant protein C and is suggested, in combination with aspirin, to be a safe and simple therapy against arterial thrombotic disease, making regular PT controls unnecessary.
