The existing techniques to evaluate hemostasis in clinical laboratories are not sensitive enough detect hypercoagulable and mild hypocoagulable states. Under different experimental conditions, the thrombin generation test may meet these requirements. This technique evaluates overall balance between procoagulant anticoagulant forces has provided new insights our understanding of coagulation cascade, as well diagnosis hypocoagulability hypercoagulability conditions. Thrombin generated can be...

Preeclampsia (PE) is characterized by hypertension and proteinuria after the 20th week gestation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether platelet count (PC) indices (mean volume (MPV), distribution width (PDW), plateletcrit (PCT)) could predict severe form preeclampsia (sPE).Three groups were evaluated; G1-pregnant with sPE (N = 29); G2-normotensive pregnant 28) Group 3: non-pregnant women 30). Platelet parameters obtained using same automatic blood cells count. Statistical...

O óxido nítrico (NO) é um radical livre, gasoso, inorgânico, incolor, que possui sete elétrons do nitrogênio e oito oxigênio, tendo elétron desemparelhado. Até meados da década de 1980, o NO era considerado apenas membro uma família poluentes ambientais indesejáveis carcinógenos potenciais. Atualmente, constitui dos mais importantes mediadores processos intra extracelulares. Este produzido a partir L-arginina, por reação mediada pela enzima NO-sintase constitutiva (c-NOS) induzível (i-NOS)....

Summary Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) manifests itself as a broad clinical spectrum ranging from asymptomatic infection to patent severe disease. Despite relevant findings suggesting changes on lymphocytes subsets regarding the CVL forms, it still remains be elucidated whether distinct phenotypic profile would correlated with degree of tissue parasite density. Herein, we have assessed correlation between status well impact bone marrow density peripheral blood leucocytes in 40 Brazilian...

Hematological analysis has limited applications for disease diagnosis in Leishmania infantum–infected dogs, but it can be very important evaluating the clinical forms of and understanding evolution canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) pathogenesis. Recently, we demonstrated that alterations leucopoiesis erythropoiesis are related to status bone marrow parasite density dogs naturally infected by L. infantum. To further characterize these alterations, evaluated association between hematological...

The most common microcytic and hypochromic anemias are iron deficiency anemia thalassemia trait. Several indices to discriminate from trait have been proposed as simple diagnostic tools. However, some of the best discriminative use parameters in formulas that only measured modern counters not always available small laboratories. development an index with good accuracy based on derived blood cell count obtained using would be useful clinical routine. Thus, aim this study was develop validate...

Abstract Background Heritability and population‐specific lifestyle factors are considered to significantly contribute chronic low back pain ( LBP ), but traditional population studies fail (1) adjust for genetics; (2) use standard validated definitions factors. Methods Using a classical co‐twin control study design variables, we explored the relative contribution of genetics environment on prevalence in sample adult Australian twins. Results Data from 105 twin pairs showed that is determined...

Resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin is a common condition in dialyzed patients with chronic kidney disease and associated more hospitalizations, increased mortality frequent blood transfusions. The main cause of hyporesponsiveness these iron deficiency. However, high proportion does not respond treatment, even the use intravenous iron, which indicates presence other important causes resistance. In addition deficiency, most resistance include inflammation, infection, malnutrition,...

Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common arrhythmia in clinical practice, is associated with an increase mortality and morbidity due to its high potential cause stroke systemic thromboembolism. Inflammatory mechanisms may play a role pathogenesis of AF maintenance. We aimed evaluate range inflammatory markers as potentially involved pathophysiology individuals nonvalvular (NVAF). A total 105 subjects were enrolled divided into two groups: patients NVAF (n = 55, mean age 72 ± 8 years)...
