Discrepancy between international normalized ratio measurements in a heterozygous carrier of F10:p.Gly244Arg with recurrent venous thromboembolism: a case report [PDF]
Background: The international normalized ratio (INR) is designed to monitor vitamin K antagonist (VKA) treatment. Before patients start a self-managing VKA program, parallel measurements are conducted to compare point-of-care testing (POCT) INR with ...

Impact of thromboplastin reagents on monitoring INR in a patient with triple-positive antiphospholipid syndrome: a case report [PDF]
IntroductionAntiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by a hypercoagulable state and recurrent thromboembolism (TE). Patients with triple-positive antiphospholipid antibodies (APAs) are at the highest risk of TE.

Identifying the silent deficiency: Severe Factor XI deficiency in an asymptomatic patient with isolated prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time—A case report [PDF]
Assessing a patient with a suspected bleeding disorder is a complex aspect of hematology. Prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time often indicates a coagulation factor deficiency or inhibitor and warrants detailed evaluation. Factor XI deficiency,

A Novel Thromboplastin-Based Rat Model of Ischemic Stroke
The thromboembolic ischemia model is one of the most applicable for studying ischemic stroke in humans. The aim of this study was to develop a novel thromboembolic stroke model, allowing, by affordable tools, to reproduce cerebral infarction in rats.

The role of hemostatic changes in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy
Introduction: The paper presents the results of the hemostasis system of rats with experimental diabetic retinopathy. Material and methods: Experimental studies were performed on white Wistar rats, which were divided into 2 groups: 1st group – intact

Tissue factor (TF)-expressing tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) can promote metastasis and pre-metastatic niche formation, but the mechanisms by which this occurs remain largely unknown. We hypothesized that generation of activated factor X (FXa)

Thromboplastin Bilbao: Reproducibility and Sensitivity of a Spanish Thromboplastin [PDF]
Prothrombin time (PT) is the control test for oral anticoagulant therapy as well as the screening test for defects of the extrinsic pathway of coagulation. Its responsiveness to decreased extrinsic clotting factors depends on the source and type of tissue factor thromboplastin extract. In 1994, a rabbit brain thromboplastin – Thromboplastin Bilbao (TBi)
