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 ...

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 ...

ABSTRACT We report a rare case of concomitant immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) and Evans syndrome, complicated by multiple cerebral infarctions. The patient presented with severe thrombocytopenia and hemolytic anemia, as well as a positive direct Coombs test. The initial diagnosis was Evans syndrome.

Severe ADAMTS13 deficiency occurs in 13% to 75% of thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA). In this context, the early identification of a severe, antibody-mediated, ADAMTS13 deficiency may allow to start targeted therapies such as B-lymphocytes-depleting ...

: Immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is primarily caused by immunoglobulin G (IgG)–type autoantibodies that bind and inhibit plasma ADAMTS13 activity and/or accelerate its clearance from circulation. Approximately 50% of patients with iTTP

A case of refractory thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura treated with plasmapheresis and rituximab [PDF]
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare, life-threatening disorder with no prevalence or incidence studies in sub-Saharan Africa. Acquired TTP has several causes, all of which lead to decreased activity of von Willebrand factor cleaving ...

Physical Fitness Is Negatively Associated With DNA Methylation‐Based Risk of Aging‐Related Diseases
We found 33 significant associations between DNA methylation–based protein level estimates (EpiScores) and fitness traits in older adults. Then we found 51 associations between fitness traits and chronic age‐related diseases, enabling a workflow for evaluating patient‐level disease risk by using DNA methylation and fitness measurements.
