  2. 1. Coagulation Inhibition and Development of Myocardial Damage in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

    Author : Gunnar Frostfeldt; Marianne Hartford; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; myocardial infarction; fibrinolysis; lmw-heparin; coagulation; troponin-T; PET; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Abstract : In 101 patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated with streptokinase the additional effects of lmw-heparin (dalteparin) were investigated. The prognostic value of troponin-T (TnT) was elucidated and the development of myocardial damage was investigated with Positron Emission Tomography (PET). READ MORE

  4. 2. Tissue Factor and CD40 Ligand : Markers for the Interplay of Coagulation and Inflammation in the Acute Coronary Syndrome

    Author : Anders Mälarstig; Agneta Siegbahn; Lars Wallentin; Taavo Tenno; Fiona Green; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Molecular medicine; tissue factor; CD40 ligand; gene expression; single nucleotide polymorphism; acute coronary syndrome; myocardial infarction; coagulation; inflammation; Molekylärmedicin;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND: Tissue factor (TF) is a 47 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein known as the main initiator of blood coagulation. CD40 ligand is another membrane molecule, which ligates to cell types associated with atherosclerotic plaques thereby mediating intraplaque inflammation and weakening of the fibrous cap. READ MORE

  5. 3. Inflammation and Coagulation Activity in Unstable Coronary Artery Disease and the Influences of Thrombin Inhibition

    Author : Jonas Oldgren; Steen Husted; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; Unstable coronary artery disease; inflammation; coagulation; thrombin inhibition; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; kardiologi; Cardiology;

    Abstract : In patients with unstable coronary artery disease, this study evaluated the degree of inflammation and coagulation activity, relations to myocardial cell damage, prognosis, and influences of randomisation to 72 h infusion with three different doses of inogatran, a direct thrombin inhibitor (n=904), or unfractionated heparin (n=305). Anticoagulant treatment effects were evaluated with aPT time. READ MORE

  6. 4. Real-time analysis of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis : new rheological and optical sensing techniques for diagnosis of haemostatic disorders

    Author : Kenny Hansson; Frank Brosstad; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The haemostatic system has a dual paradoxical function in the body. It should arrest bleeding whenever needed, but also keep the blood flowing in the circulatory system without any obstructing blood clots. The system is complex with maoy intertwined processes that interact to produce a fine-tuned regulation of the performance. READ MORE

  7. 5. Functional study of hemolymph coagulation in Drosophila larvae

    Author : Zhi Wang; Ulrich Theopold; Brian Lazzaro; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; innate immunity; hemolymph coagulation; clot components; Drosophila larvae; Molecular Biology; molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Many pathogen infections in nature are accompanied by injury and subsequent coagulation. Despite the contribution of hemolymph coagulation to wound sealing, little is known about its immune function. READ MORE
