Perioperative management and monitoring of antiplatelet agents: a focused review on aspirin and P2Y inhibitors [PDF]
Platelets play pivotal roles in hemostasis as well as pathological arterial thrombosis. The combination of aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor has become the mainstay therapy in the ageing population with cardiovascular conditions, particularly during and ...

Antiplatelet therapy – platelet function test for platelet response assessment [PDF]
Dual antiplatelet therapy is the main pharmacological mechanism used to suppress platelet function in order to prevent thrombotic complications following percutaneous coronary angioplasty.

The application value of determination of hemostasis and thrombosis in tumor patients [PDF]
Abnormal coagulation function is an important feature of the occurrence and development of malignant tumors. Tumor cells release pro-angiogenic factors that cause vascular endothelial damage and induce platelet activation and proliferation, all of which ...

Long-term treated HIV infection is associated with platelet mitochondrial dysfunction
HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy have been linked to mitochondrial dysfunction. The role of platelet mitochondrial dysfunction in thrombosis, immunoregulation and age-related diseases is increasingly appreciated.

Reduced platelet function in preterm neonates compared with term neonates
Background A reduced platelet function might contribute to the longer bleeding time seen in preterm neonates. However, the previously used platelet function testing in neonates is limited due to methodological limitations, mainly caused by difficulties ...

Sticky Platelet Syndrome in Patients with Uninduced Venous Thrombosis
OBJECTIVE: Sticky platelet syndrome (SPS) is a common autosomal dominant inherited platelet disorder. SPS is characterized by platelet hyperreactivity and is associated with arterial and venous thrombosis.

Platelet Contribution to Clot Strength in Thromboelastometry: Count, Function, or Both?
In thromboelastometry (ROTEMTM) the difference in amplitude between the EXTEM and the FIBTEM is considered an index of platelet contribution to clot strength (PCSamp). The difference in elasticity (PCSel) is rarely used.
