The Fondaparinux Paradox: Fondaparinux-Related Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia
Fondaparinux, a pentasaccharide administered for heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), can lead to the occurrence of thrombocytopenia. This patient underwent aortic stent graft placement for Salmonella paratyphi A-infected abdominal aortic aneurysm. Fondaparinux was administered for anticoagulation that led to a dramatic decline in his platelet counts. Investigations revealed HIT profile, PF4...
متن کاملMolecular Farming, an Effective System for the Production of Immunogenic Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Glycoprotein
The main aim of this study was to obtain the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) glycoprotein, through either stable transgenic plants or using a transient expression system, and determine the yield, quality and finally the immunogenicity of the plant-made CCHFV glycoprotein in a mouse model. We designed and synthesized a codon-optimized G1/G2 gene from the G1 and G2 parts of the CCHF...
متن کاملGI Puzzler Plagues High Producing Cows
A gastrointestinal problem known as ‘bloody gut’ has been recognized with increasing frequency in dairy cows over the last decade. The disease is also called jejunal hemorrhage syndrome or hemorrhagic bowel syndrome (HBS). These different names are quite descriptive of the way the problem appears in affected cows. Animals may be affected individually, or in a cluster of several affected on the ...
متن کاملFondaparinux: The First Pentasaccharide Anticoagulant
Despite advances in anticoagulation therapy, venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a major clinical concern. The incidence and risk of VTE following major orthopedic surgeries is well documented.1 In addition, because of the clinically silent nature of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and the associated morbidity and mortality, a clear rationale for VTE prophylaxis followi...
متن کاملAcute disseminated encephalomyelitis: an acute hit against the brain.
