In this study, we investigated a case of pregnancy-onset thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). The patient had severely decreased ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) activity levels during acute ...

Risk factors for silent cerebral infarction in immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic survivors
Summary Immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) survivors are predisposed to silent cerebral infarctions (SCI) defined as radiological evidence of brain ischaemia without focal symptoms. This study examined risk factors associated with SCI burden in iTTP survivors during remission.

ABSTRACT Hematologic emergencies are urgent health conditions which result in significant mortality and morbidity unless timely therapeutic measures are taken. Therapeutic success depends on their timely and accurate recognition by hematology laboratory services.

Delayed‐Onset Hemolysis in a Case of Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: A Diagnostic Challenge [PDF]
Background Hemolytic uremic syndrome is a rare thrombotic microangiopathy characterized by hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury. While commonly reported in children, adult‐onset presentations are less frequent and often atypical, leading to diagnostic delays.

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

Glycans of plasma ADAMTS13 [PDF]
In this issue of Blood , [Verbij et al][1] identified the sites of glycosylation in plasma ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) and determined the composition of the glycan structures at these sites.[1][2] ADAMTS13 is a blood enzyme ...

Dried plasma retains hemostatic function and thermal stability during Arctic military operations
Abstract Background Dried plasma offers a practical alternative for remote damage control resuscitation, providing hemostatic support and volume replacement. The Arctic presents challenges that necessitate the need for blood‐based resuscitation to extend the “golden hour.” To address this, we evaluated the hemostatic and thermal stability of dried ...

The study by Thomas and co-workers in this issue of EBioMedicine provides detailed characteristics on the pathogenic properties of antibodies that develop in patients with acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) (Thomas et al., 2015). It is now well-established that TTP is due to dysregulation of primary hemostasis. A crucial initial step in

Systemic antithrombotic effects of ADAMTS13 [PDF]
The metalloprotease ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I repeats 13) cleaves highly adhesive large von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers after their release from the endothelium. ADAMTS13 deficiency is linked to a life-threatening disorder, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), characterized by platelet-rich ...
