Increased plasma viscosity as a reason for inappropriate erythropoietin formation [PDF]
, 1993 The aim of this study was to examine whether altered plasma viscosity could contribute to the inappropriately low production rate of erythropoietin (EPO) observed in patients suffering from hypergammaglobulinemias associated with multiple myeloma or ...

Efficacy and safety of plasma exchange for Kawasaki disease with coronary artery dilatation
Renal Replacement Therapy, 2017 Background The treatment of Kawasaki disease is controversial when intravenous immunoglobulin therapy fails, although it typically relies on combinations of prednisolone, infliximab, cyclosporine, and plasma exchange therapy. The goal of the treatment is

Efficacy of therapeutic plasma exchange in severe COVID‐19 patients
British Journal of Haematology, 2020 Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could lead to a sharp increase in the levels of inflammatory cytokines. We report the efficacy of therapeutic plasma exchange in severe COVID-19 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Therapeutic plasma exchange for COVID‐19‐associated hyperviscosity
Transfusion, 2020 Recent data suggests an association between blood hyperviscosity and both propensity for thrombosis and disease severity in patients with COVID‐19. This raises the possibility that increased viscosity may contribute to endothelial damage and multiorgan ...

Perspective: Is therapeutic plasma exchange a viable option for treating Alzheimer's disease?
Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2020 Therapeutic plasma exchange, consisting of removing blood plasma and exchanging it with donated blood products, has been proposed for treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) to remove senescent or toxic factors. In preclinical studies, administration of plasma

The role of charge-exchange processes in probing hydrogen plasma with a heavy ion beam
Matter and Radiation at Extremes, 2023 Charge-changing processes of low-charged ions, used in hydrogen plasma probing by the heavy ion beam probe method, are considered. Along with the ionization of beam ions by plasma electrons and protons, the charge-exchange processes of ions on H atoms ...
