Most human cells have no direct contact with the external environment and their living conditions are ensured by blood. An essential criterion for normal blood circulation is the ability of the blood to arrest bleeding at sites of tissue injury and to prevent thrombus formation inside the blood vessels under normal conditions. The balance between these two extreme states is rigorously controlle...

155 PEDIATRICS, January 1958 DR. SCHULMAN: The case we would like to discuss is one chosen for its own intrinsic interest, and also because it provides a good opportunity to illustrate some of our newer know!edge of coagulation in general, and hemophilia in particular. The patient is a 4-year-old boy who was referred to this hospital for investigation of a hemorrhagic diathesis. His birth was n...

Genetic bleeding disorders form an important presentation among various genetic disorders occurring in children. A prevalence of 6 per 100,000 population has been reported in India. Bleeding disorders constitute a heterogenous group of disorders with varying clinical presentations. The common bleeding disorders are Hemophilia A and B, von Willebrand disease, and inherited thrombocytopenias. In ...

menorrhagia is the most common symptom that is experienced by women with bleeding disorders. von willebrand disease (vwd) is the most common congenital human bleeding disorder that is manifested as a quantitative deficiency in von willebrand factor (vwf) or dysfunction of this factor. the frequency of vwd is similar in both men and women. however, vwd is more readily detected in women due to th...

Human blood at physiological conditions is kept as fluid through precise system called homeostasis, if damage to the vessel, causing the system will be restored by vessel wall. Cases no regulation or homeostasis disorders, thrombosis (intravascular coagulation) or bleeding occur. In normal conditions, the secretion of vascular endothelial heparin-like and trmbomodulin molecules prevent blood co...

conclusions the case was fully investigated and diagnosed as a case with factor xiii deficiency causing such uncontrolled bleeding after extraction of a tooth. introduction factor xiii deficiency is a relatively rare hereditary bleeding disorder, which is usually found during infancy or early childhood. this condition may involve both genders within different races in an equal manner. its incid...

conclusions an hb-driven algorithm, in combination with the “coagulation box” and the early use of clotting factors, could be a simple and effective tool for improving coagulopathy in multiple trauma patients. results over a 12-month investigation period, 123 severe multiple trauma patients needing intensive care therapy were admitted to our trauma center (mean age 48 years, mean iss (injury se...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a neuroinflammatory autoimmune disease which mediated by various molecular and cellular immune components however recent reports have shown that coagulation factors that traditionally separate from the immune system might also be involved in ms development and progression.studies on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae) and human ms patients reports alterati...
