Does sticky blood predict a sticky end? Associations of blood viscosity, haematocrit and fibrinogen with mortality in the West of Scotland [PDF]

, 2003
There is increasing evidence that blood viscosity and its major determinants (haematocrit, plasma viscosity and fibrinogen) are associated with an increased risk of incident cardiovascular events; however, their associations with mortality are not ...

A prospective randomized controlled study on the role of restoring liver diaphragm surface tension and pain control at port sites in optimizing pain management following laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 131-137, January 2023., 2023
The cornerstone of treatment for symptomatic gallbladder stones is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Pain is the commonest cause of extended hospital stay. Disturbance of liver—diaphragm surface tension is the main cause of pain. Retained CO2 is a major concern post laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Fibrinogen metabolic responses to trauma

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2009
Coagulation complications are significant contributors to morbidity and mortality in trauma patients. Although the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis and coagulopathy has been recognized for over a decade, the underlying mechanisms related to the ...

A performance evaluation of commercial fibrinogen reference preparations and assays for Clauss and PT-derived fibrinogen [PDF]

, 2002
The wide availability of fibrinogen estimations based on the prothrombin time (PT-Fg) has caused concern about the variability and clinical utility of fibrinogen assays.

Fibrinogen and fibrin: An illustrated review

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2019
Since its discovery over 350 years ago, studies of fibrinogen have revealed remarkable characteristics. Its complex structure as a large (340 kDa) hexameric homodimer supports complex roles in hemostasis and homeostasis. Fibrinogen synthesis is regulated

Hepatic fibrinogen storage disease due to the fibrinogen γ375 Arg → Trp mutation "fibrinogen aguadilla" is present in Arabs

The Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 2014
The mutation γ375Arg → Trp (fibrinogen Aguadilla) is one of four mutations (Brescia, Aguadilla, Angers, and AI duPont) capable of causing hepatic storage of fibrinogen.

Proteins involved in the Vroman effect during exposure of human blood plasma to glass and polyethylene [PDF]

, 1996
The amounts of fibrinogen adsorbed to glass from various human blood plasmas have been measured as a function of time. The plasmas were 11 single donor plasmas, pooled plasma, a single donor high molecular weight kininogen (HMWK)-deficient plasma and ...
