Advances in Platelet-Dysfunction Diagnostic Technologies
The crucial role of platelets in hemostasis and their broad implications under various physiological conditions underscore the importance of accurate platelet-function testing. Platelets are key to clotting blood and healing wounds.

Menorrhagia in inherited bleeding disorders in Iraqi women
BACKGROUND: Menorrhagia, or excessive menstrual bleeding, is a common symptom in women with inherited bleeding disorders; they are conditions where the blood ability to clot is impaired.

Anomalous Platelet Transport & Fat-Tailed Distributions [PDF]
The transport of platelets in blood is commonly assumed to obey an advection-diffusion equation. Here we propose a disruptive view, by showing that the random part of their velocity is governed by a fat-tailed probability distribution, usually referred to as a L\'evy flight.

Exogenous application of platelet-leukocyte gel during open subacromial decompression contributes to improved patient outcome [PDF]
Background: Platelet-leukocyte gel (PLG) is being used during various surgical procedures in an attempt to enhance the healing process. We studied the effects of PLG on postoperative recovery of patients undergoing open subacromial decompression (OSD ...

Anti-margination of microparticles and platelets in the vicinity of branching vessels [PDF]
We investigate the margination of microparticles/platelets in blood flow through complex geometries typical for in vivo vessel networks: a vessel confluence and a bifurcation. Using 3D Lattice-Boltzmann simulations, we confirm that behind the confluence of two vessels a cell-free layer devoid of red blood cells develops in the channel center.

The risk of bleeding and encephalopathy in surgical patients with liver cirrhosis [PDF]
Liver cirrhosis is a disease with an increasing incidence. Surgical procedures in patients with cirrhosis are also increasing, due to a longer life expectancy in these patients and also to the improvement of therapeutic and diagnostic resources ...
