Lupus Anticoagulants and Their Relationship with the Inhibitors against Coagulation Factor VIII: Considerations on the Differentiation between the 2 Circulating Anticoagulants [PDF]
Lupus anticoagulants (LAs) are a heterogeneous group of immunoglobulins directed against negatively charged phospholipids in complex with proteins [β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI), prothrombin and others] (1). LAs prolong phospholipid-dependent coagulation tests and are associated with increased risk of thrombosis and fetal loss (1). There are other types of

Monoclonal immunoglobulin M lambda coagulation inhibitor with phospholipid specificity. Mechanism of a lupus anticoagulant. [PDF]
Prolongation of all phospholipid-dependent coagulation tests was found in a patient with macroglobulinemia, despite absence of bleeding manifestations. The purified monoclonal IgM lambda protein and its Fabmu tryptic fragment induced similar changes in normal plasma.

Effects of the oral, direct factor Xa inhibitor edoxaban on routine coagulation assays, lupus anticoagulant and anti-Xa assays [PDF]
Edoxaban is an oral direct factor Xa inhibitor for prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. The effects on common coagulation assays are clinically valuable information and in certain clinical situations a quick assessment of the anticoagulant is wanted.

Acquired coagulation inhibitors are rare but acquired bleeding diathesis caused by autoimmune depletion or dysfunction of coagulation factors can be life-threatening. This occurs most frequently in elderly patients who lack disease associations. Acquired coagulation inhibitors may also arise in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Lupus anticoagulant associated with low grade B-cell lymphoma and IgM paraproteinaemia with lupus cofactor phenomenon on DRVVT and SCT assays - a possible novel association [PDF]
Background Lupus anticoagulant (LA) is an in vitro phenomenon with prolongation of a phospholipid-dependent coagulation test which is not due to an inhibitor specific to a coagulation factor.

Background Acquired hemophilia A is a disorder caused by autoantibodies against coagulation factor VIII that may present with severe bleeding. We report a rare case of acquired hemophilia A presenting with coexisting lupus anticoagulant.

Lupus anticoagulant: a clinical and laboratory diagnostic dilemma
Lupus anticoagulants are a group of diverse autoantibodies that interfere in vitro in phospholipid-dependent clotting tests, and inhibit both the common and intrinsic pathways of coagulation. Paradoxically, they are implicated to cause hypercoagulability,
