The patient’s ECG exhibited QT‐interval prolongation with T‐wave inversion in anterior and inferior leads that, together with CT‐pulmonary angiography findings, strongly suggested PE. This ECG pattern is crucial for diagnosing PE. Abstract Even though patients with pulmonary embolism usually present with respiratory distress and tachycardia, the ...

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 ...

Systemic lupus erythematosus and cardiovascular disease
Abstract The prognosis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has improved due to better treatment and care, but cardiovascular disease (CVD) still remains an important clinical problem, since the risk of CVD in SLE is much higher than among controls.

Lysine residues control the conformational dynamics of beta 2-glycoprotein I [PDF]
One of the major problems in the study of the dynamics of proteins is the visualization of changing conformations that are important for processes ranging from enzyme catalysis to signaling. A protein exhibiting conformational dynamics is the soluble blood protein beta 2-glycoprotein I (beta2GPI), which exists in two conformations: the closed (circular)

A brain FDG PET study was performed on a 21-year-old woman with subacute chorea of unknown origin. Associated with her chorea, she had abnormal levels of antiphospholipid antibodies.

Objective: Obstetric antiphospholipid antibody syndrome is clinically recognized by adverse obstetric outcomes. To determine which antibody level best corresponds to the risk of these clinical outcomes is difficult.

Gastrointestinal symptoms as the first manifestation of antiphospholipid syndrome
Background Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an acquired pre-thrombotic autoimmune condition, which produces autoantibodies called antiphospholipid antibodies (APL) against phospholipid-binding plasma proteins. The diagnosis of APS requires at least one

Antibody Watch: Text Mining Antibody Specificity from the Literature [PDF]
Antibodies are widely used reagents to test for expression of proteins and other antigens. However, they might not always reliably produce results when they do not specifically bind to the target proteins that their providers designed them for, leading to unreliable research results.

Antibody Representation Learning for Drug Discovery [PDF]
Therapeutic antibody development has become an increasingly popular approach for drug development. To date, antibody therapeutics are largely developed using large scale experimental screens of antibody libraries containing hundreds of millions of antibody sequences.

ASAP-SML: An Antibody Sequence Analysis Pipeline Using Statistical Testing and Machine Learning [PDF]
Antibodies are capable of potently and specifically binding individual antigens and, in some cases, disrupting their functions. The key challenge in generating antibody-based inhibitors is the lack of fundamental information relating sequences of antibodies to their unique properties as inhibitors.
