Yamakagashi (Rhabdophis tigrinus) inhabits Japan widely, and incidents involving its bites occur every year. Its bite causes disseminated intravascular coagulation when the amount of infused venom is high, and it can be fatal if treatment with ...

Quantitative Evaluation of Coagulability in Obstetric DIC Using TEG6s for New Japanese Diagnostic Criteria of Obstetrical Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Obstetric disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) onset is indicated by a bleeding tendency; however, its quantitative evaluation is difficult. Here, we quantitatively evaluated coagulability using the blood viscoelasticity test, TEG6s, for determining the threshold at which bleeding tendency occurs based on coagulation function test ...

COVID-19 has been associated with a hypercoagulable state and thrombotic events. Venous thromboembolism has been the most commonly reported type of thrombosis but also arterial thrombosis and disseminated intravascular coagulation in inpatients have been

Acute Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation in Neuroendocrine Carcinoma
Malignancy is a common cause of disseminated intravascular coagulation and usually presents as a chronic disorder in solid organ tumours. We present a rare case of recurrent acute disseminated intravascular coagulation in neuroendocrine carcinoma after ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Quinine-Induced Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation
Every drug comes with some side effect. It is the benefit/risk ratio that determines the medical use of the drug. Quinine, a known antimalarial drug, has been used for nocturnal leg cramps since the 1930s; it is associated with severe life-threatening ...

Effect of the administration of recombinant hirudin and/or tissue-plasminogen activator (t-PA) on endotoxin-induced disseminated intravascular coagulation model in rabbits [PDF]
We evaluated the effect of r-hirudin and/or tissue-plasminogen activator (t-PA) in a model of DIC in rabbits induced by i.v. infusion of 100 micrograms/kg/h/6 h endotoxin. Rabbits were treated with saline (endotoxin control group), r-hirudin at 0.3 mg/kg/

Sepsis-induced coagulopathy and disseminated intravascular coagulation
The definition of sepsis is usually associated to the innate immune system while instead, it is also connected to a response of the coagulation system, given that in septic patients thrombohemorrhagic events occur. The activation of the immune response
