Neutrophil-to-Albumin Ratio as A Novel Predictor of Mortality in Patients with Sepsis
Background and Objective: Sepsis is a syndrome involving physiological, pathological, and biochemical abnormalities caused by infection. Very few studies have been performed to evaluate the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-albumin ratio. The present study aimed to evaluate the neutrophil-to-albumin ratio in patients with sepsis admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Materials and Meth...

Prothrombin time can be measured roughly on whole blood as in neonates, but is more commonly measured from plasma. Blood is taken into a vacutainer containing liquid citrate. Citrate acts as an anticoagulant by consuming all the calcium in the sample. The blood is mixed and centrifuged to separate blood cells from the plasma. The plasma is placed in a coagulation machine which takes a sample of...

Dear Madam, The P.T. assay, first described in 1935 by Quick et al. soon became the monitoring of oral anticoagulant therapy. The P.T. measures the affect of reduction in the Vit. K dependent coagulant factors II, VII and X. Because the Prothrombin Time Ratio (P.T.R.) is markedly affected by the activity of thromboplastin, the W. It helps to determine the intensity of anti-coagulation therapy b...
متن کاملCorrelation of point-of-care International Normalized Ratio to laboratory International Normalized Ratio in hemodialysis patients taking warfarin.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To determine whether point-of-care (POC) International Normalized Ratio (INR) test results correlate with plasma INR measures in intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) patients on warfarin. Anemia is thought to reduce the accuracy of POC INR assay results. Whether POC INR testing could be implemented for hemodialysis patients on chronic warfarin, who are often anemic despite ...

studies have shown that the percentage of ring sideroblasts in MDS is not prognostically important. Thus, in the revised WHO classification, a diagnosis of MDS-RS may be made even in the presence of only 5% of ring sideroblasts in cases with SF3B1 mutation. MDS-RS cases will be subdivided into cases with single lineage dysplasia (previously classified as RARS) and cases with multilineage dyspla...
