Routine Lupus Anticoagulant Sensitive aPTT Testing Can Prevent Unnecessary LA Testing

open access: yesClinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2023
Even though routine screening of the general hospital population is discouraged, medical laboratories may use a “lupus sensitive” activated partial thromboplastin time test (aPTT) with phospholipid concentrations that are susceptible to inhibition by ...

Investigation on the accelerated pavement test track (APTT) in the development of road network using geopolymer concrete

open access: yesCleaner Materials, 2022
Geopolymers produced with fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) are beneficial and environmentally advantageous materials, but their fragility limits their applications.

Determinants of the APTT‐ and ETP‐based APC sensitivity tests [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2005
A reduced sensitivity for activated protein C (APC) is associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis even in the absence of the factor (F)V Leiden mutation. This risk has been demonstrated with two APC sensitivity tests, which quantify the effects of APC on the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and the endogenous thrombin potential (

Stability of Plasma for Add-On PT and APTT Tests [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1998
We conducted studies to determine at what time point an add-on prothrombin time (PT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) test can be honored on specimens that have been received in the laboratory hours earlier without yielding results with clinically significant differences from those if the test had been performed on the original unstored ...

Screening coagulation testing using the APTT: Which reagent to choose? [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, 2010
APTT testing is integral to hemostasis testing. A prolonged result, however, can be difficult to interpret, depending on the APTT reagent's sensitivity to the lupus anticoagulant. This often generates additional laboratory testing for both factor deficiencies and the presence of a lupus anticoagulant, and in so doing, delays patient management. We have

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

APTT Reagents for Different Coagulation Tests: One Size Does Not Fit All [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2012
To the Editor We read with interest the report by Fritsma et al1 on the recommendations to use more than 1 reagent to screen for lupus anticoagulant (LA) in a hemostasis laboratory. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) reagents supplied by different commercial sources are becoming increasingly specific not only for the presence of LA but also

Nebulized heparin in burn patients with inhalation trauma : safety and feasibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Pulmonary hypercoagulopathy is intrinsic to inhalation trauma. Nebulized heparin could theoretically be beneficial in patients with inhalation injury, but current data are conflicting.

Correlation of glycated hemoglobin with coagulation profile and hematological parameters in type II diabetes mellitus

open access: yesChronic Diseases Journal, 2023
BACKGROUND: Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a high risk of atherothrombotic events, with 80% of patients with DM dying a thrombotic death and 75% of these deaths being due to cardiovascular complications.

Identification of the factor XII contact activation site enables sensitive coagulation diagnostics

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Blood coagulation is started by contact to surfaces and this is the principle for a commonly used diagnostic clotting test, aPTT. Here, the authors identify the structure in coagulation factor XII that initiates surface-driven coagulation and use the ...
