Evaluation of a new semi-automated Hydragel 11 von Willebrand factor multimers assay kit for routine use [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry, 2021
Background: Accurate diagnosis and classification of von Willebrand disease (VWD) are essential for optimal management. The von Willebrand factor multimers analysis (VWF:MM) is an integral part of the diagnostic process in the phenotypic classification ...

von Willebrand's disease [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, 1975
The common inheritable hemorrhagic disorder, von Willebrand's disease, has been known for only about 50 yr. During these years it has been well established that the cause of the disease is a deficiency of a plasma protein with remarkable biological properties. Future research should focus on details of the molecular structure of this protein.

VON WILLEBRAND DISEASE [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Pediatrics, 2009
Described by Erik Adolf von Willebrand in 1926, it is a constitutional hemorrhagic disease, inherited in the autosomal mode. Considered initially as a thrombopathic disease, then as a prologation of the bleeding time associated to a defi cit in the ...

von Willebrand factor activity and activated partial thromboplastin time as proxy biomarkers for coagulopathies in women with menorrhagia in Zambia: a case-control study

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2021
INTRODUCTION: von Willebrand Disease (vWD) is the most prevalent bleeding disorder. Women are more likely to manifest abnormal bleeding symptoms due to physiologic events and menorrhagia is the most common presenting symptom.

von Willebrand disease [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics in Medicine, 2011
von Willebrand disease is a common inherited bleeding disorder characterized by excessive mucocutaneous bleeding. Characteristic bleeding symptoms include epistaxis, easy bruising, oral cavity bleeding, menorrhagia, bleeding after dental extraction, surgery, and/or childbirth, and in severe cases, bleeding into joints and soft tissues.

Cryptic non-canonical splice site activation is part of the mechanism that abolishes multimer organization in the c.2269_2270del von Willebrand factor

open access: yesHaematologica, 2020
We report a new pathogenic mechanism in von Willebrand disease involving the use of a non-canonical splicing site. The proband, carrying the homozygous c.2269_2270del mutation previously classified as a type 3 mutation, showed severely reduced plasma and

New developments in von Willebrand disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, 2020
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) constitutes the most common inherited human bleeding disorder. It is associated with a mucocutaneous bleeding phenotype that can significantly impact upon quality of life.

An apparently silent nucleotide substitution (c.7056C>T) in the von Willebrand factor gene is responsible for type 1 von Willebrand disease

open access: yesHaematologica, 2011
Background Nucleotide variations not changing protein sequences are considered silent mutations; accumulating data suggest that they can, however, be important in human diseases.Design and Methods We report an altered splicing process induced by a silent

Bleeding symptoms in patients diagnosed as type 3 von Willebrand disease: Results from 3WINTERS‐IPS, an international and collaborative cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2020
Type 3 von Willebrand's disease (VWD) patients present markedly reduced levels of von Willebrand factor and factor VIII. Because of its rarity, the bleeding phenotype of type 3 VWD is poorly described, as compared to type 1 VWD.
