Heparin and anticoagulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2016
Heparin, a sulfated polysaccharide, has been used as a clinical anticoagulant for over 90 years. Newer anticoagulants, introduced for certain specialized applications, have not significantly displaced heparin and newer heparin-based anticoagulants in most medical procedures.

Second-Order Inference for the Mean of a Variable Missing at Random [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
We present a second-order estimator of the mean of a variable subject to missingness, under the missing at random assumption. The estimator improves upon existing methods by using an approximate second-order expansion of the parameter functional, in addition to the first-order expansion employed by standard doubly robust methods. This results in weaker

Topics of Interest in Women With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
Women with MPN: life‐cycle phases, specific risks, and influencing factors. ABSTRACT Overview Sex and gender have emerged as central modifiers of disease biology, phenotype, and clinical outcomes in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). This review will uniquely highlight issues affecting women with MPN and articulate their relevant determinants ...

Comparison Between K3EDTA and Lithium Heparin as Anticoagulant to Isolate Bovine Granulocytes From Blood

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Granulocytes play a key role in the defense against invading pathogens. To study granulocyte functions, the isolation of a pure and active cell population from fresh blood is required. Anticoagulants and red blood cells (RBCs) lysis used in the isolation

A Computer Vision-Based Quality Assessment Technique for the automatic control of consumables for analytical laboratories [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The rapid growth of the Industry 4.0 paradigm is increasing the pressure to develop effective automated monitoring systems. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a convenient tool to improve the efficiency of industrial processes while reducing errors and waste. In fact, it allows the use of real-time data to increase the effectiveness of monitoring systems,

Direct quantification of brown algae-derived fucoidans in human plasma by a fluorescent probe assay [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Fucoidan is a generic term for a class of fucose rich, structurally diverse sulfated polysaccharides that are found in brown algae and other marine organisms. Depending on the species from which the fucoidan is extracted, a wide variety of biological activities including antitumor, antiinflammatory, immune-modulating, antiviral, antibacterial and pro ...

Anticoagulation in the young [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2004
Congenital heart disease, with a wide spectrum of severity, affects approximately 1% of all live births. The majority of congenital cardiac structural abnormalities occur in otherwise healthy children and total correction of the cardiac lesion usually results in a normal productive lifespan.

Quantification of heparin in complex matrices (including urine) using a mix-and-read fluorescence assay [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Heparin is an important anticoagulant drug, about one billion doses are produced annually. It is a polydisperse sulfated polysaccharide, and the inherent heterogeneity makes the analysis of heparin difficult. The global crisis resulting from adulterated heparin in 2008 has drawn renewed attention to the challenges that are associated with the quality ...
