Antiphospholipid Syndrome [PDF]
Antiphospholipid syndrome is one of the more common acquired causes of hypercoagulability. Its major presentations are thrombotic (arterial, venous, or microvascular) and pregnancy morbidity (miscarriages, late intrauterine fetal demise, and severe pre-eclampsia).

Antiphospholipid Syndrome [PDF]
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune condition characterized by the occurrence of thrombosis (arterial and/or venous), often multiple, and/or pregnancy morbidity. Thrombosis is one of the major disease mechanisms, mainly caused by activating endothelial cells, monocytes, and platelets.

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a disease characterized by venous and arterial thromboses or spontaneous abortions and the repeated detection of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). APS may be associated with another autoimmune disease (secondary APS), particularly systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), or unrelated to an underlying disease (primary APS).

The antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), namely, the lupus anticoagulant and the anticardiolipin antibodies, are a family of autoantibodies directed predominantly against negatively charged phospholipids. Many studies have confirmed that patients with these antibodies are prone to repeated episodes of thrombosis, fetal losses, and thrombocytopenia.

RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF MEDICAL CHARTS OF PATIENTS WITH ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID SYNDROME
Background. Antiphospholipid attracts the attention of clinicians in various fields of medicine. This pathology is characterized by a triad of clinical and laboratory signs: recurrent venous or arterial thrombosis with localization in any part of the ...

Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome as a Complication of COVID-19 Infection
COVID-19 infection has been found to precipitate hypercoagulability and transiently increase antiphospholipid antibodies. However, it is yet to be determined how likely these transient changes contribute to thrombotic events and antiphospholipid syndrome.

Renal Involvement in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Antiphospholipid syndrome is a complex autoimmune disease, characterized by the presence of vascular thrombosis, obstetric, hematologic, cutaneous, and cardiac manifestations. Renal disease in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome was not recognized in

Antiphospholipid syndrome is a cause of arterial and venous thrombosis especially in the young adult population. Although dural sinus thrombosis is a relatively rare complication of antiphospholipid syndrome, it may be a cause of morbidity and mortality.
