The importance of body fluids for coagulation was first described in the 1930s. At that time, the average life expectancy of hemophilia patients was just eight years.

The syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a serious hypercoagulation state that occurs in a variety of disease states, including cancer. Although DIC is often associated with ...

A recent study led by MedUni Vienna provides new insights into the mechanisms of coagulation in persons with haemophilia A, the most common form of haemophilia. The research team was able to show ...

For people with diabetes, the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) is associated with a reduced risk for certain disorders and conditions.

Coagulation-fragmentation equations are mathematical models that describe processes where particles combine (coagulate) or break apart (fragment). These equations are essential in various fields ...

The DCA 2 is one out of four Coagulation analyzers produced by Dutch Diagnostics. This analyzer is ideal for labs that need to run some standard clothing tests (PT, aPTT, Fibrinogen). The other 3 ...

Hemophilia is a hereditary blood disorder characterized by a deficiency of certain coagulation factors, which can lead to life-threatening bleeding if left untreated. Why hemophilia A (with factor ...

Antibiotic therapy can also be an initiator of DIC, as it may alter intestinal flora, which is a source of vitamin K, thereby altering the coagulation process. DIC may also be related to blood ...
