Abstract Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a genetically determined, causal risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). Despite robust evidence from epidemiological and genetic studies, Lp(a) remains underrecognised in clinical practice due to challenges in measurement, lack of guideline familiarity ...

Role of Fibrinolytic Enzymes in Anti-Thrombosis Therapy
Thrombosis, a major cause of deaths in this modern era responsible for 31% of all global deaths reported by WHO in 2017, is due to the aggregation of fibrin in blood vessels which leads to myocardial infarction or other cardiovascular diseases (CVDs ...

Statins and the vasculopathy of systemic sclerosis: potential therapeutic agents? [PDF]
It has been postulated that endothelial cell injury is the initiating event in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis, causing attraction, attachment, migration and infiltration of activated T-cells and subsequent production of cytokines and growth ...

Activated Protein C Resistance Testing: An Update From Australasia/Asia‐Pacific
ABSTRACT Introduction Activated protein C resistance (APCR) represents a risk factor for thrombosis and is usually due to factor V Leiden (FVL). Clinicians may order either test (i.e., APCR or FVL) to help assess ‘thrombophilia’ in patients who present with thrombosis. APCR testing is usually achieved using clot‐based assays, whereas FVL is assessed by

Abstract Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are widely prescribed to prevent and treat venous and arterial thromboembolism, supported by published evidence, and are preferred over warfarin in many guidelines. Although the risk of major bleeding, in particular intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), is decreased with DOACs, gastrointestinal bleeding is ...

Relationship between QT dispersion and reperfusion in the acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
Background. QT dispersion (QTd) represents the parameter of the expanded heterogeneity of myocard of ventricles. The aim of this study was to examine the dynamics of changes of QTd during the first 5 days of the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in ...
