Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2011 Summary1. Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. An increased body mass index (BMI) is associated with venous thromboembolism, myocardial infarction, stroke and stent thrombosis after percutaneous interventions. Studies in mouse models of obesity and induced arterial or venous thrombosis have provided insights into the mechanisms ...

Hypoxia impairs agonist-induced integrin αIIbβ3 activation and platelet aggregation
Scientific Reports, 2017 Under ischemic conditions, tissues are exposed to hypoxia. Although human physiology, to a certain extent, can adapt to hypoxic conditions, the impact of low oxygen levels on platelet function is unresolved.

Exploratory Simulation of Thrombosis in a Temporary LVAD Catheter Pump within a Virtual In-vivo Left Heart Environment [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Percutaneous catheter pumps are intraventricular temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices that are positioned across the aortic valve into the left ventricle (LV) and provide continuous antegrade blood flow from the LV into the ascending aorta (AA).

Hyperhomocysteinemia and thrombosis [PDF]
Clinical & Laboratory Haematology, 2000 It has been known for some time that patients with homocystinuria are at an increased risk for both venous and arterial thrombosis. More recently it has been found that even moderate increases in homocysteine levels are associated with increased risk for deep venous thrombosis, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and peripheral vascular disease.

Cancer-Associated Thrombosis: An Overview of Mechanisms, Risk Factors, and Treatment
Cancers, 2018 Cancer-associated thrombosis is a major cause of mortality in cancer patients, the most common type being venous thromboembolism (VTE). Several risk factors for developing VTE also coexist with cancer patients, such as chemotherapy and immobilisation ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The authors applied joint/mixed models that predict mortality of trifluridine/tipiracil‐treated metastatic colorectal cancer patients based on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) trajectories. Patients at high risk of death could be spared aggressive therapy with the prospect of a higher quality of life in their remaining lifetime, whereas patients with a ...

Multi-scale simulation of thrombus formation at LVAD inlet cannula connection: Importance of Virchow's triad [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 As pump thrombosis is reduced in current-generation ventricular assist devices (VAD), adverse events such as bleeding or stroke remain at unacceptable rates. Thrombosis around the VAD inlet cannula (IC) has been highlighted as a possible source of stroke events.

Threshold of microvascular occlusion: injury size defines the thrombosis scenario [PDF]
, 2014 Damage to the blood vessel triggers formation of a hemostatic plug, which is meant to prevent bleeding, yet the same phenomenon may result in a total blockade of a blood vessel by a thrombus, causing severe medical conditions. Here, we show that the physical interplay between platelet adhesion and hemodynamics in a microchannel manifests in a critical ...
