Untreated individuals with antithrombin (AT) deficiency are at higher risk of thrombosis and adverse pregnancy outcomes. The present recommendations are mostly empirical for treating patients with AT deficiency during pregnancy because of the absence of ...

The VKORC1 ER-luminal loop mutation (Leu76Pro) leads to a significant resistance to warfarin in black rats (Rattus rattus) [PDF]
Well-known 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives, such as warfarin, act as inhibitors of the vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR) and are used as anticoagulants. Mutations of the VKOR enzyme can lead to resistance to those compounds.

The genetic mechanisms of warfarin resistance in Rattus rattus found in the wild in Japan [PDF]
Warfarin is commonly used worldwide as a rodenticide. It inhibits blood coagulation by inhibiting vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase (VKOR) activity leading to hemorrhage.

Culture-Negative Infective Endocarditis Presumed due to Brucella Causing Rapid Native Aortic Valve Destruction in a Young Adult: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Culture‐negative endocarditis with features consistent with Brucella can rapidly destroy a normal aortic valve in young adults. 2023 Duke‐ISCVID criteria (clinical/imaging findings plus histopathology), supported by serology and occupational exposure enabled urgent combined antimicrobial‐surgical management without culture confirmation ...

Genetic Regulation of Warfarin Metabolism and Response
Genetic factors make an important contribution to the wide interindividual variation in warfarin dose requirement. Several cytochromes P450, each of which shows genetic polymorphism leading to interindividual variation in levels of activity, contribute ...

Novel revelation of warfarin resistant mechanism in roof rats (Rattus rattus) using pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analysis [PDF]
Roof rats (Rattus rattus) live mainly in human habitats. Heavy use of rodenticides, such as warfarin, has led to the development of drug resistance, making pest control difficult.

Interactional resistance between patients with atrial fibrillation and cardiologists in consultation on treatment with warfarin : the value of shared decision-making [PDF]
Rationale: Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of stroke and it can be reduced by treatment with warfarin. Some patients consider that warfarin is a stressful treatment with undesired effects and the perceived barriers include unwillingness to ...
