    Abstract : Almost precisely a century ago, in the 1920s and 1930s, cattle bled to death in North America after being fed moldy hay containing sweet clover, the yellow Melilotus officinalis, and the white Melilotus albus. The toxic substance in the hay inhibiting blood coagulation was identified and named dicumarol. READ MORE

  4. 2. Studies on interfaces between primary and secondary hemostasis

    Abstract : Our conceptual understanding of hemostasis is still heavily influenced by outdated experimental models wherein the hemostatic activity of platelets and coagulation factors are understood and studied in isolation. Although perhaps convenient for researchers and clinicians, this reductionist view is negated by an ever increasing body of evidence pointing towards an intimate relationship between the two phases of hemostasis, marked by strong interdependence.

  5. 3. Thrombin generation in different cohorts : Evaluation of the haemostatic potential

    Author : Roza Chaireti; Tomas Lindahl; Elvar Theodorsson; Sven Almer; Per Morten Sandset; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to evaluate thrombin generation in patients with thrombophilia (Paper I), in patients with venous thromboembolism (Paper II), in healthy women during the menstrual cycle (Paper III), in patients with liver disease (Paper IV) and in patients with mild deficiency of factor VII (Paper V).For this purpose, thrombin generation was measured in platelet poor plasma by the calibrated automated thrombogram (CAT®) assay.

    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Blood is a vital part of the human physiology; a transport system that brings nutrients and oxygen to sustain living cells and simultaneously facilitates the removal of carbon dioxide and other waste products from the body. To assure the continuity of these functions, it is of uttermost importance to keep the flowing blood inside the vascular system at any cost. READ MORE

  7. 5. Fibrinolytic factors in relation to anthropometry and incident type 2 diabetes

    Abstract : Fibrinolytic imbalance is associated with cardiovascular disease and its risk factors. The longitudinal changes in the fibrinolytic factors tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and tPA/PAI-1 complex have been inadequately studied in the general population and in relation to incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
