Efficacy and safety of current means to prevent cerebrovascular thrombosis in patients at high risk of stroke are suboptimal. In theory, anchoring fibrinolytic plasminogen activators to the luminal surface of the cerebral endothelium might arrest formation of occlusive clots in this setting. We

PAF-acether (PAF) or 2-methoxy-PAF (2-MX) caused a dose-dependent paw edema showing a 1:25 ratio between their inflammatory activities. 2-MX caused a thrombocytopenia, whereas PAF did not alter the number of these cells. Both phospholipids induced reductions in total leukocyte count. Rat

In this study by using the human recombinant non-pancreatic-secreted platelet PLA2 (r-hnps-PLA2) and rabbit polyclonal antibodies directed against either the human (group II) or the porcine enzyme (group I), we have shown a possible involvement of platelet PLA2 in poly-L-arginine (25 kDa)-induced

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

Cardiogenic pulmonary edema usually presents with characteristic clinical features and bilateral infiltrates on the chest radiograph. Rarely, pulmonary edema may manifest unilaterally, leading to a mistaken diagnosis of a primary lung pathology. We present a 30-year-old man who developed acute

R-/S-2-(2-hydroxypropanamido) benzoic acid (R-/S-HPABA), marine-derived anti-inflammatory antiplatelet drugs, were initially synthesised in our group. However, preliminary research showed that R-/S-HPABA were eliminated rapidly because of extensive hydroxylation metabolism of phenyl ring in vivo. In

The current study evaluates antidiabetic, anticoagulant, and antiplatelet activity of novel benzimidazole-containing quinolinyl oxadiazoles. These derivatives are synthesized and characterized using spectroscopy (FT-IR, 1H NMR, and mass spectroscopy) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The

Platelet aggregation and fibrin deposition in the pulmonary circulation may contribute to the pathogenesis of lung injury in the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We evaluated the effect of two antiplatelet drugs (forskolin & dipyridamole) on pulmonary responses to intravenous infusion of

Many kinds of side effects are likely to occur while managing difficult airway. This article describes a case of a man who fell into pulmonary edema and heart failure during the difficult airway management. He was to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his knee. At first, we planed spinal anesthesia but

BACKGROUND Intracranial pial arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a rare cerebrovascular lesion, and the literature is sparse. Most authors insist that simple disconnection of arteriovenous shunting is enough to treat intracral single-channel pial AVF in most cases, either by microsurgery or endovascular

BACKGROUND Microvascular and macrovascular complications in diabetes stem from chronic hyperglycemia and are thought to have overlapping pathophysiology. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence rate of hospitalized myocardial infarctions (MI) and cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) in

Patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) are at high risk of vascular complications, including stroke and myocardial infarction (MI). Concerns have been raised that intravitreal dosing of vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors in DME could be associated with an increase in cardiovascular

OBJECTIVE To report a case of optic disc edema with adjacent retinal ischemia in ulcerative colitis. METHODS Photo essay. METHODS A 36-year-old white man presented with visual loss OD. Past medical history was significant for ulcerative colitis. The patient had suffered presumed non-arteritic

Ulmus macrocarpa Hance (Ulmaceae) has been used as a traditional oriental medicine for the treatment of edema, mastitis, gastric cancer and inflammation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Ulmus macrocarpa extract (UME) on thrombus formation in vivo, platelet activation ex vivo
