BACKGROUND
Unfractionated heparin administered immediately after traumatic brain injury (TBI) reduces brain leukocyte (LEU) accumulation, and enhances early cognitive recovery, but may increase bleeding after injury. It is unknown how non-anticoagulant heparins, such as 2,3-O desulfated heparin
We present the case of a 29-year-old woman with the rare combination of lupus anticoagulant and bilateral optic disc edema. The linked etiopathologic problems are discussed to provide a proper clinical and ophthalmologic definition.
Hydrops fetalis with fetal renal vein thrombosis in a mother with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome detected post-partum suggests an underlying pathogenetic association that may provide new strategies for treatment of a lethal disorder.
BACKGROUND
Lactuca sativa (lettuce) has been traditionally used for relieving pain, inflammation, stomach problems including indigestion and lack of appetite. Moreover, the therapeutic significance of L. sativa includes its anticonvulsant, sedative-hypnotic and antioxidant properties.
METHODS
In the
A 22-year-old female with history of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was referred for evaluation of decreased visual acuity in her right eye. Her best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at the time of presentation was 20/160. Widespread cotton wool spots and macular edema were seen on biomicroscopy.
The current study deals with the purification and characterization of non-enzymatic glycoprotein (NEGp) from flax seed buffer extract. Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-A25 column chromatography techniques were employed to isolate NEGp. NEGp showed single sharp band at 29 kDa region on 10% SDS-PAGE, and under
Stingray envenomation is one of the major problems in the marine and freshwater ecosystem. Accidents in human cause immediate, local and intense pain, erythema, edema, hemorrhage, tissue necrosis and secondary bacterial infection are also common. To determine the effect of two marine stingray
OBJECTIVE
Portal vein thrombosis is a rare complication of Crohn's disease, and its precise cause and appropriate treatment are not known. We describe a patient with extending portal vein thrombosis in Crohn's disease who was successfully treated with combined anticoagulant
Snake venom enzymes of the L-amino acid oxidase (LAAO) class are responsible for tissue hemorrhage, edema, and derangement of platelet function. However, what role, if any, these flavoenzymes play in altering plasmatic coagulation have not been well defined. Using coagulation kinetomic analyses
The effect of anticoagulation upon renal edema and plasma protein accumulation in acute ischemic renal damage was studied. Rats were subjected to unilateral renal artery occlusion for 60 min and 15 min of reflow. The kidney weight and the content of 125-I-fibrinogen and 131-I-albumin, injected 24 h
Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) may increase the risk of venous thromboembolic complications; however, early prevention with heparinoids is often withheld for its anticoagulant effect. New evidence suggests low molecular weight heparin reduces cerebral edema and improves neurological recovery
Five medicinal plants of Pakistan were investigated for their antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, and anticoagulant potential. Antinociceptive activity was estimated by hot plate and writhing assay. In hot plate assay, Quercus dilatata (52.2%) and Hedera nepalensis (59.1%) showed
Relation between oncological diseases and venous thrombo-embolism (VTE) is well known for almost 2 centuries. In 1823 Bouillaud assumed by three patients with tumor and recent deep vein thrombosis (DVT), that peripheral edema of lower limbs emerges as a result of „obturation“ of
There is a common belief that administration of anticoagulants to patients with brain tumors is contraindicated. Between 1982 and 1986, 50 patients with deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary emboli and brain tumors were examined and treated. Twenty-four patients received an inferior vena cava
