Filter by:Viral infections provoke the systemic inflammatory response and cause an imbalance between the procoagulant and anticoagulant homeostatic mechanisms. Multiple pathogenic mechanisms are involved, including endothelial dysfunction, increased von Willebrand factor, Toll receptor activation, and tissue factor pathway activation. D-dimer levels greater than 1000 ng / mL are associated with an 18-fold increased risk of mortality. In this context, many patients may require prophylaxis or antithrombotic treatment with low molecular weight heparins. Currently, there is no validated scheme on the dose and timing of the use of antithrombotic drugs. The study aims to identify the effect of two anticoagulant strategies (prophylactic and therapeutic) on the progression to ventilatory support or death in patients with COVID-19 infection who require hospital care.
PURPOSE: to determine the effect of aerobic exercise training on sex hormones and coagulation factors in postmenopausal elderly women BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the largest cause of death in women, and the risk of developing CVD increases after menopause . Because thrombosis is thought to be a cause of most acute cardiovascular events, abnormalities in endogenous coagulation and fibrinolysis may play an important role in the risk of an acute cardiovascular event. Aging is also associated with adverse changes in both coagulation and fibrinolysis. For instance, postmenopausal women exhibit higher fibrinogen levels and lower levels of endogenous fibrinolysis. Physical activity and physical fitness have consistently been linked to lower CVD rates in women. In fact, an inverse association between physical activity and total mortality, as well as a 50% reduction in risk of myocardial infarction, has been observed in physically active postmenopausal women. In addition to the numerous other benefits provided by regular physical activity, one of the mechanisms mediating the cardioprotective effect may be changes in the hemostatic system, particularly fibrinolysis HYPOTHESES: Aerobic exercises may have no effect on sex hormones and coagulation factors in elderly postmenopausal women RESEARCH QUESTION: Do aerobic exercises effect on sex hormones and coagulation factors in elderly postmenopausal women in response to exercises?
The study will follow COVID-19 patients who required intensive care after 3-6 months and one year after discharge from the ICU with functional level as well as organ function to assess recovery after COVID-19. Blood and urine will be collected for biobanking.
The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider.
The purpose of this study is to observe the relationship between the level of lipid peroxidation products in serum of patients with traumatic brain injury and secondary coagulation disorders.
This study attempts to clarify the pathophysiology of haemostasis in relation to the evidence of sepsis in liver disease, and compares the accuracy of various available laboratory tests in assessment of these patients. Further research is needed for proper understanding of the influence of sepsis on coagulation disorders in acute variceal bleeding in cirrhosis, to correctly identify the type and optimal quantity of blood product requirement in at risk patients. Thromboelastography (TEG) /Sonoclot has been proposed as a superior tool to rapidly diagnose and help guide resuscitation with blood products. Secondly, the study of derangement in coagulopathy after the onset of sepsis is of paramount importance because of increased mortality after the onset of sepsis. In the present study, patients with cirrhosis who present with acute variceal bleeding, will be included in the study cohort, and will undergo a baseline diagnostic workup as described. They will be followed for development of any signs of infection after hospitalization. Then the effect of sepsis on their coagulation and thrombin generation response swill be assessed. Thus the effect of sepsis on the progression and outcome of coagulopathy in patients with acute variceal bleeding will be studied.
Apixaban is a potent, oral, selective reversible direct inhibitor of factor Xa with a favorable efficacy and safety profile in the prevention of non valvular (NV) atrial fibrillation (AF). It has been shown, including by our group, that D-dimers levels (molecular marker of coagulation activity) are predictive of the events (including mortality) in patient with AF independently of the antithrombotic treatment. The aim of the study is to evaluate the changes in plasma levels of biomarkers of coagulation activation: D-dimers, prothrombin fragments F1+2, von Willebrand factor (vWF) and thrombin-antithrombin complexes (TAT) in response to apixaban treatment in patients with NVAF.
