The syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a serious hypercoagulation state that occurs in a variety of disease states, including cancer. Although DIC is often associated with ...
Coagulation-fragmentation equations are mathematical models that describe processes where particles combine (coagulate) or break apart (fragment). These equations are essential in various fields ...
A recent study led by MedUni Vienna provides new insights into the mechanisms of coagulation in persons with haemophilia A, the most common form of haemophilia. The research team was able to show that ...
Hemophilia A and B coagulation defects, which are caused by deficiencies of Factor VIII and Factor IX, respectively, can be bypassed by administration of recombinant Factor VIIa. However ...
The importance of body fluids for coagulation was first described in the 1930s. At that time, the average life expectancy of hemophilia patients was just eight years.
Under homeostatic conditions, the body is maintained in a finely tuned balance of coagulation and fibrinolysis. See Figure 1 for a depiction of normal hemostasis. The activation of the coagulation ...
Haemophilia is a hereditary blood disorder characterized by a deficiency of certain coagulation factors, which can lead to life-threatening bleeding if left untreated. Why haemophilia A (with ...
The DCA 2 is one out of four Coagulation analyzers produced by Dutch Diagnostics. This analyzer is ideal for labs that need to run some standard clothing tests (PT, aPTT, Fibrinogen). The other 3 ...
A team of researchers at The Hormel Institute, University of Minnesota, led by Associate Professor Vijay Reddy, PhD, published a paper in the leading journal Nature Communications. The paper, ...
