Global Thrombosis Test - a possible monitoring system for the effects and safety of dabigatran [PDF]
© Otsui et al. 2015BACKGROUND: Dabigatran is an alternative to warfarin (WF) for the thromboprophylaxis of stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The advantage of dabigatran over WF is that monitoring is not required; however, a

A conformation-sensitive monoclonal antibody against the A2 domain of von Willebrand factor reduces its proteolysis by ADAMTS13. [PDF]
The size of von Willebrand factor (VWF), controlled by ADAMTS13-dependent proteolysis, is associated with its hemostatic activity. Many factors regulate ADAMTS13-dependent VWF proteolysis through their interaction with VWF.

Ground state properties of dissipative two state system coupled to phonons
We present a systematic analysis of ground state properties of a tunneling system coupled to an Ohmic bath. The nonadiabatic effects induced by coupling with tunneling particle , on the ground state properties of phonons are taken into account.

Identification and functional analysis of a novel von Willebrand factor mutation in a family with type 2A von Willebrand disease. [PDF]
von Willebrand factor (VWF) is essential for normal hemostasis. VWF gene mutations cause the hemorrhagic von Willebrand disease (VWD). In this study, a 9-year-old boy was diagnosed as type 2A VWD, based on a history of abnormal bleeding, low plasma VWF ...
