Protein Induced by Vitamin K Absence or Antagonist‐II: Significantly Elevated in Obstructive Jaundice and Sepsis Patients Without Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
The PIVKA‐II produced by HCC may differ from that produced by obstructive jaundice and sepsis. Given that serum PIVKA‐II levels are abnormally elevated in patients with obstructive jaundice and sepsis, the results should be interpreted with caution in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma combined with these diseases. ABSTRACT Background PIVKA‐II is a

Clot waveform analysis of prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time in various disorders

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology
Introduction: The prolongation in APTT reflects various disorders affecting the blood coagulation system. Automated coagulation analyzers such as ACL TOP, help in evaluating the clotting cascade by displaying clot reaction curves or waveforms. The fibrin

Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM) Versus Conventional Coagulation Tests in Cirrhosis: Can We Reduce Plasma Transfusion Without ROTEM?

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
ROTEM showed a strong correlation with conventional coagulation tests (CCTs) but failed to assess re‐balanced hemostasis. Similar to ROTEM, using higher CCT thresholds may help reduce unnecessary plasma transfusions before invasive procedures. ABSTRACT Background Periprocedural rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) could reduce transfusions while ...

Prognostic Factors for Complications Following Ultrasound‐Guided Percutaneous Kidney Biopsy: A 7‐Year Retrospective Study

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Complications were common but mostly minor following ultrasound‐guided percutaneous kidney biopsy. Older age, obesity, and smoking were independently associated with a reduced risk of complications, including hematoma. These findings highlight the overall safety of the procedure and support individualized risk assessment based on patient ...
