ChemInform Abstract: Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors - Current Status and Future Prospects
2010
Prostaglandins are formed from arachidonic acid by the action of cyclooxygenase and subsequent downstream synthetases. Two closely related forms of the cyclooxygenase have been identified which are now known as COX-1 and COX-2. Both isoenzymes transform arachidonic acid to prostaglandins, but differ in their distribution and their physiological roles. Meanwhile, the responsible genes and their regulation have been clarified. COX-1, the pre-dominantly constitutive form of the enzyme, is expressed throughout the body and performs a number of homeostatic functions such as maintaining normal gastric mucosa and influencing renal blood flow and platelet aggregation. In contrast, the inducible for…
Validation of the ISTH/SSC bleeding assessment tool for inherited platelet disorders: A communication from the Platelet Physiology SSC
2020
Background: Careful assessment of bleeding history is the first step in the evaluation of patients with mild/moderate bleeding disorders, and the use of a bleeding assessment tool (BAT) is strongly encouraged. Although a few studies have assessed the utility of the ISTH-BAT in patients with inherited platelet function disorders (IPFD) none of them was sufficiently large to draw conclusions and/or included appropriate control groups. Objectives: The aim of the present study was to test the utility of the ISTH-BAT in a large cohort of patients with a well-defined diagnosis of inherited platelets disorder in comparison with two parallel cohorts, one of patients with type-1 von Willebrand disea…
A perioperative uncontrollable bleeding in an elderly patient with acquired hemophilia A: a case report
2013
Key Clinical Message Acquired hemophilia A should be taken into account in the differential diagnosis of perioperative bleeding in patients without any apparent reason for activated partial thromboplastin time prolongation.
Floor of the mouth hemorrhage subsequent to dental implant placement in the anterior mandible
2019
Abstract Complications in dental implant surgery are possible. Bleeding complications have been described that may be serious, particularly in the floor of the mouth. We present two cases of sublingual hematomas during dental implant osteotomies that impeded but did not close the airway. The clinical courses of these patient’s complications are reviewed. One patient had immediate hematoma formation while the other developed a hematoma overnight, presenting the next day. The treatment rendered was a precautionary in-hospital tracheotomy for the first patient and only compression control for the second. Bleeding complications during dental implant placement in the anterior mandible can be ser…
Influence of Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique on Peri-Implant Tissues; Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial with Three-Year Follow-Up. Pa…
2019
Purpose: The objective of this prospective randomized clinical trial (RCT) was to analyze and compare the clinical behavior of three types of prosthesis supported by single implants in the posterior region after three years of functional loading. Materials and methods: Seventy-five implants were divided into three groups according to the type of prosthetic restoration: screw-retained crown (group GS); cemented crown without finishing line (biologically oriented preparation technique) (group GBOPT); and conventional cemented crown with finishing line (group GCC). After three years in function, clinical parameters (presence of keratinized mucosa, probing depths, bleeding on probing, and radio…
Evaluation of menstrual irregularities after COVID-19 vaccination: Results of the MECOVAC survey
2022
Abstract We investigated menstrual irregularities after the first and second doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Women answered a customised online questionnaire (ClinicalTrial.gov ID: NCT05083065) aimed to assess the vaccine type, the phase of the menstrual cycle during which the vaccine was administered, the occurrence of menstrual irregularities after the first and second doses, and how long this effect lasted. We excluded women with gynaecological and non-gynaecological diseases, undergoing hormonal and non-hormonal treatments, in perimenopause or menopause, as well as those who had irregular menstrual cycles in the last 12 months before vaccine administration. According to our data analysis…
Accuracy of risk tools to predict critical bleeding in major trauma: A systematic review with meta-analysis.
2021
BACKGROUND Early detection of critical bleeding by accurate tools can help ensure rapid delivery of blood products to improve outcomes in major trauma patients. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the accuracy of risk tools to predict critical bleeding in patients with major trauma. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and CENTRAL were searched up to February 2021 for studies investigating risk tools to predict critical bleeding for major trauma people in prehospital and emergency department. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Diagnostic Test Accuracy study guidelines. Two independent authors included studies, extracted data, appraised the quali…
Laika ietekme ārkārtas gastroendoskopijas veikšanā uz ārstēšanas iznākumu nevarikozas augšējas GI asiņošanas gadījumā
2018
Darba nosaukums: Laika ietekme ārkārtas gastroendoskopijas veikšanā uz ārstēšanas iznākumu nevarikozas augšējās GI asiņošanas gadījumā. Ievads: Akūta nevarikoza augšējā gastrointestinālā trakta asiņošana ir nopietna medicīniska patoloģija, kas var veicināt tālāku veselības pasliktināšanos un pat nāvi. Šī iemesla dēļ ir svarīgi analizēt agrīnas un vēlīnas ārkārtas endoskopijas ietekmi uz ārstēšanas iznākumu nevarikozas augšējās GI asiņošanas gadījumos. Darba mērķis: Mērķis ir izpētīt, vai agrīna endoskopisko izmeklējumu veikšana pacientam samazina negatīvu iznākumu riskus. Materiāli un metodes: Darbs ir veikts kā retrospektīvs kohortas pētījums. Dati tika ievākti no 2010. līdz 2017. gadam. P…
Systematic review: the presenting international normalised ratio (INR) as a predictor of outcome in patients with upper nonvariceal gastrointestinal …
2011
Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2011; 33: 1010–1018 Summary Background The prognostic value of an elevated international normalised ratio (INR) as part of initial risk stratification in nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) remains poorly characterised. Aim To assess the usefulness of the initial INR in patients with NVUGIB. Method After a systematic review, we included the presenting INR and other validated prognosticators in multivariable models predicting rebleeding and mortality. Data are reported as odd ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results Only two of 769 candidate studies were useful, but reported disparate, highly selected NVUGIB patients with varying threshold init…
