Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (cTTP) is an ultra‐rare, potentially life‐threatening condition caused by a deficiency of the blood enzyme ADAMTS13. Until now, ADAMTS13 replacement has been achieved with infusions of plasma or plasma‐based therapies (PBT).

Prophylaxis in von Willebrand disease [PDF]
Von Willebrand disease (VWD), the most common hereditary bleeding disorder, is divided into three types depending on the quantitative (type 1 and 3) or qualitative (type 2) abnormality of von Willebrand factor (VWF). About 70-80% of VWD patients can be treated with the synthetic product desmopressin, while the others necessitate factor VIII/VWF ...

Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by a lack of a specific targeted treatment and a complex, partially unexplored pathophysiology. Common comorbidities associated with HFpEF are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, obesity and diabetes.

Haemophilia A and von Willebrand’s disease [PDF]
Summary. Deficient or defective coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) and von Willebrand factor (VWF) can cause bleeding through congenital deficiency or acquired inhibitory antibodies. Recent studies on type 1 von Willebrand’s disease (VWD), the most common form of the disease, have begun to explain its pathogenesis.

Abstract Background Cardiac remodelling, a crucial aspect of heart failure, is commonly investigated in preclinical models by quantifying cardiomyocyte cross‐sectional area (CSA) and microvascular density (MVD) via histological methods, such as immunohistochemistry.

Diagnosing von Willebrand disease: genetic analysis [PDF]
Investigation of a patient with possible von Willebrand disease (VWD) includes a range of phenotypic analyses. Often, this is sufficient to discern disease type, and this will suggest relevant treatment.

Current and novel biomarkers in cardiogenic shock
A summary of current and novel biomarkers and their potential stages of release in cardiogenic shock. The diagram illustrates the proposed release of the biomarkers during the different stages of cardiogenic shock: progression from cardiac dysfunction/stress, through to inflammation and end‐organ dysfunction.

Von Willebrand Disease in the Netherlands [PDF]
Von Willebrand Disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder resulting in mucocutaneous bleeding, like epistaxis, oral cavity bleeding and menorrhagia. VWD is caused by reduced or dysfunctional von Willebrand Factor (VWF).
