RÉSUMÉ
Examining the critical role of anticoagulants in medical practice, particularly their central function in preventing abnormal blood clotting, is of the utmost importance. However, the study of interactions between blood proteins and alternative anticoagulant nano-surfaces is still understood poorly. In this study, novel approach involving direct functionalisation of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) as carriers with sulphated dextran (s-dext) is presented, with the aim of evaluating the potential of magnetically-responsive MNPs@s-dext as anticoagulants. The physicochemical characterisation of the synthesised MNPs@s-dext includes crystal structure analysis, morphology study, surface and electrokinetic properties, thermogravimetric analysis and magnetic properties` evaluation, which confirms the successful preparation of the nanocomposite with sulfonate groups. The anticoagulant potential of MNPs@s-dext was investigated using a standardised activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) test and a modified APTT test with a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) which confirmed the anticoagulant effect. Time-resolved solid-liquid interactions between the MNPs@s-dext and model blood proteins bovine serum albumin and fibrinogen were also investigated, to gain insight into their hemocompatibility, and revealed protein-repellence of MNPs@s-dext against blood proteins. The study also addressed comprehensive cytotoxicity studies of prepared nanocomposites, and provided valuable insights into potential applicability of MNPs@s-dext as a promising magnetic anticoagulant in biomedical contexts.

The term 'routine coagulation' typically applies to hemostasis tests routinely performed in hematology laboratories, often available 24/7, and potentially ordered urgently. These tests would comprise of the prothrombin time (PT), the PT converted to an international normalized ratio, the activated partial thromboplastin time (often called partial thromboplastin time in North American laboratories) and potentially the thrombin time, the D-dimer assay, and fibrinogen assays. Although other tests could feasibly be offered (testing feasible), there are good reasons for not including all of these other tests in all routine coagulation laboratories.

There is an unmet clinical need for effective anticoagulant therapies for the management of thromboembolic diseases that are not associated with a relevant risk of bleeding. Asundexian (BAY 2433334) is an oral, direct, small-molecule inhibitor of activated factor XI (FXIa). Phase I data from healthy Caucasian male participants indicated predictable pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles and no clinically relevant bleeding-related adverse events (AEs). Reported here are data from two phase I, randomized, placebo-controlled, single- and multiple-dose escalation studies of asundexian conducted in 60 healthy men: 24 Japanese and 36 Chinese. Baseline characteristics were comparable between the treatment groups. All treatment-emergent AEs were mild, with no serious AEs or AEs of special interest reported. Systemic exposure to asundexian increased dose proportionally after single or multiple dosing, with relatively low accumulation following multiple once-daily dosing in both Chinese and Japanese volunteers. Asundexian induced dose-dependent prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time and inhibition of FXIa activity, with no effects on prothrombin time or FXI concentration in Japanese participants. There were no clinically relevant interethnic differences in PK profile across the Japanese, Chinese, and Caucasian (data from the previous phase I study) participants and no clinically relevant difference in PD response between Japanese and Caucasian participants.

INTRODUCTION: Arterial and venous thrombotic events in COVID-19 cause significant morbidity and mortality. For optimal thromboprophylaxis treatment for hospitalized patients, especially those with severe COVID-19 symptoms, it is still unclear whether to use full- or therapeutic-dose versus prophylactic-dose anticoagulation therapy. The study aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of unfractionated heparin (UFH) for thromboprophylaxis in severe degree of COVID-19. METHODOLOGY: In this cross-sectional study, the medical records of 160 COVID-19 patients at the COVID-19 Emergency Hospital Wisma Atlet, Jakarta, from March to August 2021, were collected. The predetermined inclusion criteria for patients were severe COVID-19 infection; age > 18 years; positive D-dimer level > 400 ng/mL; high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygenation; IMPROVE bleeding risk score < 7; and willingness to participate in the study. The primary outcome was activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) target achievement, oxygenation changed to nasal cannula or ended with room air, mortality rate, and the principal safety criterion was presence of bleeding. RESULTS: Of 160 subjects, 63.8% were male and 45.6% were aged 45-59 years old. Obesity was the most common comorbidity at 45.6% Among all subjects, 9.4% experienced bleeding, with hematuria being the most frequent type at 66.7%. All subjects released HFNC, and no deaths were reported. CONCLUSIONS: It can be concluded that administration of therapeutic doses of heparin in patients with severe COVID-19 had a low risk of bleeding and no patients were reported to have died. However, further investigation is needed to determine the long-term effects of therapeutic doses of anticoagulants.

Natural and synthetic colorants present in food can modulate hemostasis, which includes the coagulation process and blood platelet activation. Some colorants have cardioprotective activity as well. However, the effect of genipin (a natural blue colorant) and synthetic blue colorants (including patent blue V and brilliant blue FCF) on hemostasis is not clear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of three blue colorants-genipin, patent blue V, and brilliant blue FCF-on selected parameters of hemostasis in vitro. The anti- or pro-coagulant potential was assessed in human plasma by measuring the following coagulation times: thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). Moreover, we used the Total Thrombus formation Analysis System (T-TAS, PL-chip) to evaluate the anti-platelet potential of the colorants in whole blood. We also measured their effect on the adhesion of washed blood platelets to fibrinogen and collagen. Lastly, the cytotoxicity of the colorants against blood platelets was assessed based on the activity of extracellular lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). We observed that genipin (at all concentrations (1-200 µM)) did not have a significant effect on the coagulation times (PT, APTT, and TT). However, genipin at the highest concentration (200 µM) and patent blue V at the concentrations of 1 and 10 µM significantly prolonged the time of occlusion measured using the T-TAS, which demonstrated their anti-platelet activity. We also observed that genipin decreased the adhesion of platelets to fibrinogen and collagen. Only patent blue V and brilliant blue FCF significantly shortened the APTT (at the concentration of 10 µM) and TT (at concentrations of 1 and 10 µM), demonstrating pro-coagulant activity. These synthetic blue colorants also modulated the process of human blood platelet adhesion, stimulating the adhesion to fibrinogen and inhibiting the adhesion to collagen. The results demonstrate that genipin is not toxic. In addition, because of its ability to reduce blood platelet activation, genipin holds promise as a novel and valuable agent that improves the health of the cardiovascular system and reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases. However, the mechanism of its anti-platelet activity remains unclear and requires further studies. Its in vivo activity and interaction with various anti-coagulant and anti-thrombotic drugs, including aspirin and its derivatives, should be examined as well.

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is considered as a systemic disease with the presence of proinflammatory cytokines in the circulation, which drives hypercoagulable state of endometriosis. Currently, endometriosis is classified into four stages: I (minimal), II (mild), III (moderate) and IV (severe). The aim of this study is to investigate the correlations between inflammatory markers and coagulation factors in patients diagnosed of endometriosis with stage IV. METHODS: This retrospective case-control study included 171 endometriosis patients with stage IV and 184 controls. Continuous data were expressed by mean ± standard deviation. Mann-Whitney U and χ2 tests were used to compare the medians and frequencies among the groups. Spearman analysis was conducted to determine the correlation among the measured parameters. The diagnostic values of the parameters differentiating endometriomas were tested by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS: The time of activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was decreased and the concentration of fibrinogen (FIB) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were increased in women of endometriosis with stage IV. The APTT were negatively correlated with NLR while the concentrations of FIB were positively correlated with NLR. The ROC analysis showed that the Area under the curve (AUC) of FIB was 0.766 (95% confidence interval:0.717-0.814) with sensitivity and specificity reaching 86.5 and 60.9%, respectively. The AUC of CA125 and CA199 was 0.638 (95% confidence interval: 0.578-0.697), 0.71 (95% confidence interval: 0.656-0.763) with sensitivity and specificity reaching 40.9 and 91.8%, 80.7 and 56.5% respectively. The combination of these factors showed the highest AUC of 0.895 (0.862-0.927) with sensitivity of 88.9% and specificity of 77.7%. CONCLUSION: In the present study, we found that inflammatory factors showed significant correlation with APTT or FIB in endometriosis with stage IV. Moreover, the coagulation factors combined with CA125 and CA199 were more reliable for identifying the endometriosis with stage IV.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of inflammation on anticoagulation monitoring for patients supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). DESIGN: Prospective single-center cohort study. SETTING: University-affiliated tertiary care academic medical center. PARTICIPANTS: Adult venovenous and venoarterial ECMO patients anticoagulated with heparin/ MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: C-Reactive protein (CRP) was used as a surrogate for overall inflammation. The relationship between CRP and the partial thromboplastin time (PTT, seconds) was evaluated using a CRP-insensitive PTT assay (PTT-CRP) in addition to measurement using a routine PTT assay. Data from 30 patients anticoagulated with heparin over 371 ECMO days was included. CRP levels (mg/dL) were significantly elevated (median, 17.2; interquartile range [IQR], 9.2-26.1) and 93% of patients had a CRP of ≥5. The median PTT (median 58.9; IQR, 46.9-73.3) was prolonged by 11.3 seconds compared with simultaneously measured PTT-CRP (median, 47.6; IQR, 40.1-55.5; p < 0.001). The difference between PTT and PTT-CRP generally increased with CRP elevation from 2.7 for a CRP of <5.0 to 13.0 for a CRP between 5 and 10, 17.7 for a CRP between 10 and 15, and 15.1 for a CRP of >15 (p < 0.001). In a subgroup of patients, heparin was transitioned to argatroban, and a similar effect was observed (median PTT, 62.1 seconds [IQR, 53.0-78.5 seconds] vs median PTT-CRP, 47.6 seconds [IQR, 41.3-57.7 seconds]; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Elevations in CRP are common during ECMO and can falsely prolong PTT measured by commonly used assays. The discrepancy due to CRP-interference is important clinically given narrow PTT targets and may contribute to hematological complications.

BACKGROUND: Clot waveform analysis (CWA) reportedly enhances the interpretation of clotting time measurement. This study aimed to compare CWA between prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) assays for better understanding how to apply CWA for assessing effects of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). METHODS: Samples were prepared by spiking plasma with rivaroxaban, apixaban, edoxaban, or dabigatran. To compensate the influence of fibrinogen, CWA parameters were adjusted by unifying maximum changes in transmittance in clotting reaction curves detected by the optical system. RESULTS: Non-adjusted PT-CWA parameters unexpectedly rose at low drug concentrations but declined at high drug concentrations while adjusted PT-CWA parameters exhibited dose-dependent decrease. Both non-adjusted and adjusted APTT-CWA parameters showed dose-dependent decrease. Adjusted CWA parameters were applicable to Hill plot analysis. All DOACs exhibited Hill coefficients indicating positively cooperative effects regarding most adjusted PT-CWA parameters. Regarding adjusted APTT-CWA parameters, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban exhibited Hill coefficients indicating no or negatively cooperative effects. The observed differences between PT-CWA and APTT-CWA suggested the implication of thrombin positive feedback in DOAC effects. CONCLUSION: The results revealed distinct features of DOAC effects in extrinsic and intrinsic pathways. To ascertain the clinical implication, further studies using clinical samples are needed.

Data on the pathophysiological mechanisms of hemostatic alterations in the thrombotic events that occur during Ramadan intermittent fasting (RIF), particularly in the natural coagulation inhibitors, are very limited. Thus, our objective was to evaluate the effect of RIF on the natural anticoagulants level, antithrombin, protein C, and total and free protein S (PS) in healthy participants. Participants were divided into two groups. Group I consisted of 29 healthy fasting participants whose blood samples were taken after 20 days of fasting. Group II included 40 healthy non-fasting participants whose blood samples were taken 2-4 weeks before the month of Ramadan. Coagulation screening tests including prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and plasma fibrinogen level, natural anticoagulants; antithrombin, protein C, free and total PS and C4 binding protein (C4BP) levels were evaluated in the two groups. High levels of total and free PS without change in antithrombin, protein C, and C4BP levels were noted in the fasting group as compared with non-fasting ones (p < 0.05). PT and APTT showed no difference between the two groups. However, the fibrinogen level was higher in the fasting group. In conclusion, RIF was found to be associated with improved anticoagulant activity in healthy participants, which may provide temporal physiological protection against the development of thrombosis in healthy fasting people.

OBJECTIVE: To describe and compare prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), thromboelastography (TEG), HCT, and platelet count measurements in a hemorrhage/over-resuscitation model. DESIGN: Randomized crossover study. SETTING: University teaching hospital. ANIMALS: Six cats. INTERVENTIONS: Anesthetized cats underwent 3 treatments at 2-month intervals. The treatments were as follows: NHR-no controlled hemorrhage and sham resuscitation; LRS-controlled hemorrhage and lactated Ringer's solution (LRS) for resuscitation; and Voluven-controlled hemorrhage and 6% tetrastarch 130/0.4 for resuscitation. The LRS and Voluven were administered at 60 and 20 mL/kg/h, respectively, for 120 minutes. Blood samples were drawn for PT, aPTT, TEG, HCT, and platelet count measurements at a healthy check (T - 7d), after controlled hemorrhage (T0), at 60 and 120 minutes of resuscitation (T60 and T120), and at 24 hours after completion of resuscitation (T24h). Data were analyzed using a general linear mixed model approach (significance was P < 0.05). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Total median blood loss (controlled hemorrhage and blood sampling from T0 to T120) at T120 was 11.4, 31.0, and 30.8 mL/kg for NHR, LRS, and Voluven, respectively. PT and aPTT during LRS and Voluven were prolonged at T60 and T120 compared to NHR (P < 0.001). On TEG, the reaction time, kinetic time, and alpha-angle were within reference intervals for cats at all time points in all treatments, while maximum amplitude was less than the reference interval (40 mm) at T0, T60, and T120 during Voluven and at T60 and T120 during LRS compared to NHR (both P < 0.001). The HCT and platelet count were significantly lower at T60 and T120 during LRS and Voluven compared to NHR (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Hypocoagulopathy was observed during hemorrhage and liberal fluid resuscitation. Prolongation of PT and aPPT and decreased clot strength may have been caused by hemodilution and platelet loss.

INTRODUCTION: There are significant differences in the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) critical values reported in different studies, most of which does not make recommendations for any specific clear detection systems. The International Council for Standardization in Hematology (ICSH) recommends that APTT critical values be established based on the reagent type, coagulation factor sensitivity and heparin response. The objective of this study was to establish APTT critical values by using different reagents and based on single coagulation factor deficiencies. METHODS: The APTT values were determined in commercial endogenous coagulation factor-deficient plasma at concentrations of 1 IU/dL, 2 IU/dL, 5 IU/dL, 10 IU/dL, 20 IU/dL, and 30 IU/dL by using four assay systems. The retrospective collection of data from patients who lacked factor VIII (FVIII), FIX, or FXI alone was performed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of APTT for identifying patients with an endogenous coagulation factor activity < 5 IU/dL. RESULTS: The APTT values in the plasma samples with the same concentrations of endogenous coagulation factors were significantly different among the four assay systems (P < 0.001). The suggested critical values of APTT were 40.0 s for Sysmex CS5100 (Actin FSL), 58.0 s for Sysmex CS5100 (Actin), 51.8 s for STA-R Evolution (STA-PTTA), and 64.8 s for ACL TOP 700 (HemosIL SynthasIL). On the basis of the ROC curve, the optimal threshold values for APTT (STA-PTTA) were 55.8 s in patients with a simple deficiency of FVIII (sensitivity = 100%, specificity = 85.7%, area under the ROC curve (AUC) = 0.982), 54.3 s in patients with a simple deficiency of FIX (sensitivity = 100%, specificity = 92.9%, AUC = 0.986), and 71.7 s in patients with a simple deficiency of FXI (sensitivity = 100%, specificity = 94.1%, AUC = 0.992), which were closer (difference of 0.6-2.5 s) to the cutoff points for commercial plasma at equal factor levels. CONCLUSIONS: APTT critical values need to be established for different reagents based on the presence of a single coagulation factor deficiency.

ABSTRACT: Clinical practice shows that a critical unmet need in the field of thrombosis prevention is the availability of anticoagulant therapy without bleeding risk. Inhibitors against FXIa or FXIIa have been extensively studied because of their low bleeding risk. However, whether these compounds produce synergistic effects has not yet been explored. In this study, analyses of activated partial thromboplastin time in combination with the FXIa inhibitor PN2KPI and the FXIIa inhibitor Infestin4 at different proportions were performed using the SynergyFinder tool identifying synergistic anticoagulation effects. Both an FeCl 3 -induced carotid artery thrombosis mouse model and a transient occlusion of the middle cerebral artery mouse model showed that the combination of PN2KPI and Infestin4, which are 28.57% and 6.25% of the effective dose, respectively, significantly prevents coagulation, and furthermore, dual inhibition does not cause bleeding risk.

INTRODUCTION: Non-factor replacement therapies are emerging as prophylactic treatment options in haemophilia A or B (HA/HB) with and without inhibitors. Concizumab is an anti-tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) monoclonal antibody preventing factor (F)Xa inhibition and enhancing thrombin generation. Based on experience with other non-factor therapies and extended half-life products, there is a focus on potential interference with common clinical coagulation assays used to monitor patients treated with concizumab. AIM: To evaluate the impact of concizumab on standard clinical coagulation assays. METHODS: Plasma samples (normal, HA/HB with/without inhibitors) in the presence/absence of added concizumab (250-16,000 ng/mL) were analysed in clinical assays including activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), prothrombin time (PT), FVIII and FIX one-stage clot and chromogenic substrate assay, assays for detecting FVIII or FIX inhibitors and other assays for coagulation factors. RESULTS: Concizumab did not impact PT assays, but resulted in a small shortening of aPTT (up to 5 s in haemophilia plasma and 0.4 s in normal plasma). Concizumab had no, or only a minor impact on FVIII and FIX activity assays or Bethesda inhibitor assays. FXI and FXII activity in normal plasma, as measured by single factor aPTT-based assay, was significantly increased in the presence of concizumab (+11% each). This was also the case for FVII and FX measured by PT-based assays using plasma with 25% of FVII or FX (+64% and +22%, respectively). CONCLUSION: The presence of concizumab did not, or only slightly, influence the outcome of standard clinical coagulation assays relevant for HA and HB.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical phenotype and gene mutation of a genetic coagulation factor XII (FXII) deficiency pedigree and explore the molecular pathogenesis. METHODS: The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and FXII activity (FXII:C) were detected by clotting method. The FXII antigen (FXII:Ag) was tested with ELISA. All exons and flanks of F12 gene were determined by Sanger sequencing. ClustalX-2.1-win, PROVEAN and Swiss-Pdb Viewer software were used to analyze the conservatism of amino acids at the mutant site, forecast whether the mutant amino acids were harmful and confirm the influence of the mutation on protein structure. RESULTS: The APTT of the proband prolonged to 71.3 s. The FXII:C and FXII:Ag were decreased to 5% and 6%, respectively. There were two heterozygous missense mutations c.580G>T and c.1681G>A detected in exon 7 and exon 14 of F12 gene, resulting in p.Gly175Cys and p.Gly542Ser, severally. Proband's father carried the p.Gly175Cys heterozygous mutation, while mother, brother and daughter had the p.Gly542Ser heterozygous mutation. Software analysis showed that both Gly175 and Gly542 were conserved, the two mutations were harmful and when mutations had occurred, the corresponding sites affected the protein local structure. CONCLUSION: The p.Gly175Cys and p.Gly542Ser compound heterozygous mutations are the molecular pathogenesis of the hereditary coagulation FXII deficiency pedigree. The p.Gly175Cys mutation has been detected for the first time in the world.

Coagulopathy development in traumatic brain injury (TBI) is among the significant complications that can negatively affect the clinical course and outcome of TBI patients. Timely identification of this complication is of utmost importance in the acute clinical setting. We reviewed TBI patients admitted to our trauma center from 2015 to 2021. Demographic data, mechanism of injury, findings on admission, imaging studies, procedures during hospitalization, and functional outcomes were gathered. INR with a cutoff of 1.3, platelet count less than 100 × 109/L, or partial thromboplastin time greater than 40s were utilized as the markers of coagulopathy. A total of 4002 patients were included. Coagulopathy occurred in 38.1% of the patients. Age of the patients (Odds Ratio (OR) = 0.993, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 0.986-0.999, p = 0.028), systolic blood pressure (OR = 0.993, 95% CI = 0.989-0.998, p = 0.005), fibrinogen level (OR = 0.998, 95% CI = 0.996-0.999, p < 0.001), and hemoglobin level (OR = 0.886, 95% CI = 0.839-0.936, p < 0.001) were independently associated with coagulopathy. Furthermore, coagulopathy was independently associated with higher mortality rates and longer ICU stays. Coagulopathy had the most substantial effect on mortality of TBI patients (OR = 2.6, 95% CI = 2.1-3.3, p < 0.001), compared to other admission clinical characteristics independently associated with mortality such as fixed pupillary light reflex (OR = 1.8, 95% CI = 1.5-2.4, p < 0.001), GCS (OR = 0.91, 95% CI = 0.88-0.94, p < 0.001), and hemoglobin level (OR = 0.93, 95% CI = 0.88-0.98, p = 0.004). Early coagulopathy in TBI patients can lead to higher mortality rates. Future studies are needed to prove that early detection and correction of coagulopathy and modifiable risk factors may help improve outcomes of TBI patients.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical and prognostic value of prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) in newly diagnosed patients with multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS: The clinical data of 116 newly diagnosed MM patients in the Second Hospital and Third Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from October 2014 to March 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, and the patients were divided into two groups: normal PT and APTT group and prolonged PT or APTT group. The differences in sex, age, classification, staging, bleeding events, laboratory indicators [including hemoglobin (Hb), platelet count (PLT), serum calcium, serum albumin (ALB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), serum creatinine and ß2-microglobulin], and cytogenetic characteristics between the two groups of patients were compared. The effect of prolonged PT or APTT on survival of patients with MM was analyzed. RESULTS: Compared with patients in normal PT and APTT group, patients in prolonged PT or APTT group were more likely to experience bleeding events (χ2=5.087, P =0.024), with lower ALB levels (χ2=4.962, P =0.026) and PLT levels (χ2=4.309, P =0.038), and higher serum calcium levels (χ2=5.056, P =0.025). The positive rates of del17p, del13q and 1q21+ in prolonged PT or APTT group were higher than those in normal PT and APTT group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P >0.05). K-M survival analysis showed that the prolonged PT or APTT group had a shorter median progression-free survival (PFS) (P =0.032) and overall survival (OS) (P =0.032). Multivariate Cox analysis showed that prolonged PT or APTT (HR=2.116, 95%CI :1.025-4.372, P =0.043) and age ≥65 years (HR=2.403, 95%CI : 1.195-4.836, P =0.014) were independent risk factor for OS in newly diagnosed MM patients. However, prolonged PT or APTT had no significant effect on PFS of newly diagnosed MM patients (HR=1.162, 95%CI : 0.666-2.026, P =0.597). CONCLUSION: Newly diagnosed MM patients with prolonged PT or APTT have worse clinical indicators, shorter PFS and OS. Prolonged PT or APTT is an independent risk factor for OS in MM patients.

We studied the effectiveness of Xe/O2 mixture inhalation (30% Xe and 70% O2, 20 min for 5 days) in a model of experimental thromboplastin pneumonitis. Inhalation of the studied mixture decreased the intensity of the inflammatory process in the lung tissue assessed by the temperature response of animals, changed lung weight and lung weight coefficient. At acute stage of pneumonitis, an increase in xenon consumption was recorded due to its retention in the gas exchange zone and a natural decrease in oxygen consumption due to partial alveolar/capillary block. The formation of pneumonitis was accompanied by a pronounced procoagulant shift in the regulation system of the aggregate state of blood. The Xe/O2 inhalations ensured physiologically optimal levels of prothrombin and activated partial thromboplastin time against the background of a moderate decrease in fibrinogen level throughout the experiment. At the same time, the activity of the natural anticoagulant antithrombin III increased from day 5 to day 14.

INTRODUCTION: Diagnosing hemophilia B (HB) carrier status is important to manage bleeding in carriers and to prevent bleeding in potential offspring. Without a family history of hemophilia, diagnosing HB carrier status is challenging. Genetic testing is the gold-standard, however it is reserved for individuals with a high suspicion of carrier status. AIMS: To describe the distribution of activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and factor IX coagulant (FIX:C) levels in HB carriers and assess the ratio of FIX:C to other Vitamin K dependent factors (FII:C, FVII:C, FX:C) as an indicator of HB carrier status. METHODS: In this retrospective, single-centre cohort study, subjects were included if they were obligate or genetically proven HB carriers. Distributions of aPTT and FIX:C were described and the relationship between FIX:C levels in carriers and severity of familial HB was analysed. Ratios of FIX:C to FII:C, FVII:C, FX:C were calculated. RESULTS: Seventy-two female HB carriers (median age: 34 years; IQR 24-43) were included. Median aPTT and FIX:C levels were 33.0 s [IQR 30.0-37.0] and 57 IU/dL [IQR 43-74]. Fifteen carriers (21%) had mild HB (FIX:C levels of 10-40 IU/dL). FIX:C levels trended higher in carriers of mild HB versus carriers of moderate/severe HB. In six carriers, the median ratio of FIX:C to other Vitamin K dependent factors was 0.44, with 92% of ratios being ≤ 0.75. CONCLUSION: aPTT and FIX:C levels were unreliable in diagnosing HB carrier status. A low ratio of FIX:C to other Vitamin K dependent factors may be a useful marker of HB carrier status.

INTRODUCTION: Coronavirus 2019 symptoms include coagulopathy and thromboembolic risk. Using one parameter to diagnose coagulopathy has little predictive value. OBJECTIVE: This study will examine if D-dimer and APTT testing can predict COVID-19 severity and aid triage and manage patients. METHODS: 214 COVID-19 patients were enrolled and classified into two categories based on their respiratory manifestations; mild (126 cases) and severe (88 cases). Patient data regarding age, gender, D-Dimer level, and APTT level were collected. When both D-Dimer and APTT levels were abnormal, in this study, the patient was considered to have a coagulation disorder. Indicators of coagulation in the COVID-19 patients were collected and compared between the two groups. Chi-square (χ2) tests were used to determine the significant differences between coagulation disorders in the two groups. RESULTS: Our findings showed that patients with coagulopathies were more likely to belong to the severe group. Within the two groups of patients, the rate of coagulation disorders was as follows: mild = 8.8 % within coagulation disorders, 4.8% within the two Groups; severe = 91.2 % within coagulation disorders, 77.8 % within the two Groups. There was a statistically significant relationship between coagulation disorder and severe COVID-19 patients compared to mild patients (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Coagulation disorders are more likely to occur in severe COVID-19 patients. D-Dimer and APTT tests are significant indicators for predicting COVID-19 severity. Our research found an abnormal pattern of coagulation disorders and COVID-19 severity that should be considered in the COVID-19 treatment protocol.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Preeclampsia, a pregnancy complication associated with significant maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity, has been found to be closely linked to dysfunction in the blood coagulation-fibrinolysis system. However, the relationship between hematologic data and severity and onset time of preeclampsia remains unclear. This study aimed to identify specific hematologic parameters in both preeclamptic and normotensive pregnant women and determine their potential significance in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 112 patients with gestational hypertension disease were divided into two groups: early-onset preeclampsia (32 cases) and late-onset preeclampsia (80 cases). A control group of 82 normotensive pregnant women matched for age and parity was also selected. Blood samples were collected from all participants to test for specific hematologic parameters. RESULTS: Mild and severe preeclampsia were associated with lower hemoglobin level (P = 0.01 and P = 0.03, respectively), higher mean platelet volume (P = 0.01 and P = 0.01, respectively) and fibrinogen (P = 0.01 and P = 0.01, respectively), and shorter prothrombin time (P = 0.02 and P = 0.01, respectively) and activated partial thromboplastin time (P = 0.01 and P = 0.02, respectively). CONCLUSION: These findings have provided evidence on the hematologic coagulative actors in the pathogenesis and severity of preeclampsia.
