P-75: The Association of Antiphospholipid Syndrome and Recurrent Miscarriages

a:4:{s:10:"Background";s:364:"Antiphospholipid syndrome is a coagulation disorder that causes recurrent miscarriages and fetal deaths. In the present review we summarize current knowledge about Antiphospholipid syndrome that associated with recurrent miscarriages. In addition, on the basis of these comprehensive data, possible pathophysiologic mechanisms of this disorder are discussed.";s:19:"M...

گزارش یک مورد از هیپرتانسیون ترومبوآمبولیک پولمونر در جریان سندروم آنتی فسفولیپید اولیه

While pulmonary thromboembolism is common, thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is very rare. The present case is a 35 year old woman with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, who presented with severe dyspnea and leg edema, following an earlier thrombotic event of 10 years earlier, after her her second childbearing. She also had a history of the first childbearing complicated with c...

Thrombosis and the antiphospholipid syndrome.

The antiphospholipid syndrome is an antibody-mediated hypercoagulable state characterized by recurrent venous and arterial thromboembolic events. Several studies have determined that the frequency of antiphospholipid syndrome in patients presenting with a venous thromboembolic event is between 4% and 14%. Because of the high risk for recurrent thromboembolism in these patients, current recommen...

Treatment of Thrombotic Antiphospholipid Syndrome: The Rationale of Current Management—An Insight into Future Approaches

Vascular thrombosis and pregnancy morbidity represent the clinical manifestations of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), which is serologically characterized by the persistent positivity of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents currently provide the mainstay of APS treatment. However, the debate is still open: controversies involve the intensity and the duration ...

Revisiting Beta 2 Glycoprotein I, the Major Autoantigen in the Antiphospholipid Syndrome

Beta 2 glycoprotein I (β2GPI) is a single chain 50 kDa highly glycosylated glycoprotein at an approximate concentration of 4 μM in cells. The abundance of this protein in plasma and its high state of preservation indicate the important role of this protein in mammalian. In addition, β2GPI has a particular structure in the fifth domain, and is categorized as the major antigen recognized by autoa...
