Vascular dysfunction in women with recurrent pregnancy loss: Possible association with antiphospholipid antibodies. [PDF]

Int J Gynaecol Obstet
Abstract Objective Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.

Increased heterogeneity of brain perfusion is an early marker of central nervous system involvement in antiphospholipid antibody carriers. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The non-criteria neuropsychiatric manifestations of antiphospholipid syndrome include headache, dizziness, vertigo, seizure, depression and psychosis. There were still no objective methods qualified to detect the early central nervous system involvement ...

The Pathophysiology of The Antiphospholipid Syndrome: A Perspective From The Blood Coagulation System

Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2022
The antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by a hypercoagulability associated to vascular thrombosis and/or obstetric morbidity, is caused by the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies such as lupus anticoagulant ...

Deep capillary retinal ischemia and high-titer prothrombin-associated antiphospholipid antibodies: A case series of three patients

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2019
Purpose: Acute macular neuroretinopathy has been shown to be due to ischemia of the deep capillary retinal plexus and most cases occur in young women; we hypothesized that there may be an association with antiphospholipid antibodies.

Apoptosis, annexin A5 and anti-annexin A5 antibodies in the antiphospholipid syndrome [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2013
It has been proposed that apoptosis is one of the mechanisms involved in the generation of antiphospholipid antibodies. The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies is the main laboratory criterion for a definite diagnosis of the antiphospholipid syndrome.
