Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Regulate Coagulation and Inflammation Together in Methotrexate Induced Lung Injury Rat Model

Abstract Clinical research has shed the light on the relation between coagulation and inflammation. Coagulation cascade is activated in lung injury resulting in thrombotic and fibrotic lesions. Such a cascade is initiated by inflammation, then the two systems intense each other. New therapies that modula...

Platelet function, coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with previous coronary and cerebrovascular ischemic events

Clinics; 74 (), 2019
OBJECTIVES: Ischemic stroke (IS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) history is present in 4-17% of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This subgroup of patients is at high risk for both ischemic and bleeding events. The aim of this study was to determine the role of platelet aggregability, coagu...

Monitoring of coagulation by intraoperative thromboelastometry of liver transplantation in a patient using warfarin - case report

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 68 (6), 2018
Abstract Introduction: Advanced hepatic disease may - in addition to the widely recognized hemorrhagic complications - occur with thrombotic events. We describe the case of a cirrhotic patient taking warfarin and whose coagulation management during liver transplantation was guided by thromboelastometry ...

Factor XIII-guided treatment algorithm reduces blood transfusion in burn surgery

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 68 (3), 2018
Abstract Background and objectives: Major burn surgery causes large hemorrhage and coagulation dysfunction. Treatment algorithms guided by ROTEM® and factor VIIa reduce the need for blood products, but there is no evidence regarding factor XIII. Factor XIII deficiency changes clot stability and decreas...

Immediate laser-induced hemostasis in anticoagulated rats subjected to oral soft tissue surgery: a double-blind study

Abstract Given the growing trend towards medical indications for continuous use of anticoagulants, the number of patients on these medications continues to rise. The management of patients on oral anticoagulants requiring oral surgical procedures has aroused much controversy. Changes in an anticoagulatio...
