Venous Thrombosis

Transcriptome analysis and identification of genes associated with chicken sperm storage duration.

The sperm storage tubules located in the mucosal folds of the uterovaginal junction (UVJ) are the primary site of sperm storage in chicken hens after natural mating or artificial insemination (AI). The short-term sperm storage (24 h after mating or AI) in hens was highly associated with immunity and pH-related pathway genes. However, the underlying mechanism of longer duration of sperm storage in ...

Therapeutic Anticoagulation With an Ultra-Low Concentration Argatroban-Based Purge Solution for Percutaneous Ventricular Assist Device in Patient With Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia.

Percutaneous left ventricular assist devices (pVADs) require a continuous purge solution containing heparin to prevent pump thrombosis and device failure. Data regarding alternative options in patients who have suspected heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) are limited. In this report, we describe a 68-year-old white man with cardiogenic shock with an Impella CP device managed with a low conce...

[Predicting atrial fibrillation through a sinus-rhythm electrocardiogram; useful or not?].

In patients with cryptogenic stroke, the detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) is important, since it is an indication for the prescription of oral an...

Simultaneous quantification of ticagrelor and its active metabolite, AR-C124910XX, in human plasma by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry: Applications in steady-state pharmacokinetics in patients.

A sensitive and simple liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of ticagr...

Multicenter experience with photoselective vaporization of the prostate on men taking novel oral anticoagulants.

OBJECTIVE: Photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) is a widely performed surgical procedure for benign prostatic obstruction. This approach ...

Fully Automated Segmentation of Lower Extremity Deep Vein Thrombosis Using Convolutional Neural Network.

OBJECTIVE: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a disease caused by abnormal blood clots in deep veins. Accurate segmentation of DVT is important to facilita...

Quantification of apixaban in human plasma using ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry.

Apixaban, an inhibitor of direct factor Xa, is used for the treatment of venous thromboembolic events or prevention of stroke. Unlike many other antic...

The use of artificial neural network analysis can improve the risk-stratification of patients presenting with suspected deep vein thrombosis.

Artificial neural networks are machine-learning algorithms designed to analyse data without a pre-existing hypothesis as to any associations that may ...

An Ensemble Model With Clustering Assumption for Warfarin Dose Prediction in Chinese Patients.

The prediction of daily stable warfarin dosage for a specific patient is difficult. To improve the predictive accuracy and to build a highly accurate ...

Postmarketing surveillance on clinical use of edoxaban in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (ETNA-AF-Japan): Three-month interim analysis results.

BACKGROUND: Direct oral anticoagulants are the first-line drugs for anticoagulation therapy in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). However, a real...

Anticoagulant Related Nephropathy Induced by Dabigatran.

We describe a case of biopsy-proven dabigatran related nephropathy in a patient without underlying IgA nephropathy. To date, dabigatran related nephro...

Using Machine Learning to Predict the Information Seeking Behavior of Clinicians Using an Electronic Medical Record System.

Poor electronic medical record (EMR) usability is detrimental to both clinicians and patients. A better EMR would provide concise, context sensitive p...

Antithrombotic Management during Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair with the Mitraclip System in a Patient with Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia.

Interventional cardiology procedures require full anticoagulation to prevent thrombus formation on catheters and devices with potential development of...

Risky Business: Judging the Use of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants for Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Renal Dysfunction.

Warfarin, for many years, was the only oral anticoagulant availablt on the market for the prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. D...

Ensemble of machine learning algorithms using the stacked generalization approach to estimate the warfarin dose.

Warfarin dosing remains challenging due to narrow therapeutic index and highly individual variability. Incorrect warfarin dosing is associated with de...

Therapeutic Enoxaparin in the Morbidly Obese Patient: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Enoxaparin is a low molecular weight heparin commonly used in the treatment of venous thromboembolisms (VTEs); however, evidence on optimal empiric do...

Evaluation of the DOAC-Stop® Procedure to Overcome the Effect of DOACs on Several Thrombophilia Screening Tests.
