Retention of critical platelet hemostatic functions of amotosalen-UVA pathogen-reduced cryoprecipitated fibrinogen complex. [PDF]
Abstract Background Cryoprecipitate Anti‐Haemophilic Factor (CRYO‐AHF) is enriched for fibrinogen, VWF, FVIII, FXIII and fibronectin, but has short post‐thaw expiration due to risk of transfusion‐transmitted infection (TTI) limiting availability for rapid treatment.

Pathogen-reduced plasma, cryoprecipitate reduced for therapeutic plasma exchange. [PDF]
Abstract Background Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) for thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and auto‐immune disorders involves repeated patient exposure to allogenic plasma with the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infection (TTI).

Modeling Versus Balancing Approaches to Addressing Instrumental Variables in Weighting: A Comparison of the Outcome-Adaptive Lasso, Stable Balancing Weighting, and Stable Confounder Selection. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Variable selection is essential for propensity score (PS)‐weighted estimators. Recent work shows that including instrumental variables (IVs), associated with only treatment but not with the outcome, can impact both the bias and precision of the PS‐weighted estimators.

Breaking the Barrier: Unraveling the No-Reflow Phenomenon in Cardiovascular Medicine. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The no‐reflow phenomenon is a stubborn and often devastating complication in cardiovascular medicine, where blood flow is restored to an artery, yet the microvasculature remains unresponsive. First identified in 1967, this phenomenon has haunted clinicians and researchers alike, particularly in the context of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Diagnosis and Management of Hypersensitivity to Antiplatelet Drugs: EAACI Position Paper. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Antiplatelet drug (APD) therapy is the cornerstone for the prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The main APDs are aspirin and thienopyridines, particularly clopidogrel. These drugs may induce hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs).

Critical Analysis of Thrombocytopenia Associated With Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors and Potential Role of Zalunfiban, a Novel Small Molecule Glycoprotein Inhibitor, in Understanding the Mechanism(s) [PDF]
Thrombocytopenia is a rare but serious complication of the intravenous glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa; integrin αIIbβ3) receptor inhibitors (GPIs), abciximab, eptifibatide, and tirofiban. The thrombocytopenia ranges from mild (50 000–100 000 platelets/

Development of Reference Intervals for the TEG 6s, a Point-of-Care Viscoelastic Assay, in Dogs. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Thromboelastography (TEG) provides a global assessment of hemostasis and identifies patients with both hemorrhagic and thrombotic tendencies. Traditional TEG instruments, such as the TEG 5000 (Haemonetics), can be labor‐intensive and require specialized training to operate.

Endo-chip laser-induced thrombus formation: a vessel-on-chip model for in vitro testing of antithrombotic agents [PDF]
: Mouse models, such as the intravital laser-induced model of thrombus formation, are commonly used for mechanistic and preclinical studies in thrombosis. However, their translational value is limited by species differences.
