Quality of thrombin produced from the patient's own plasma using the TPD, a new Thrombin-processing Device

Thrombin derived from bovine sources commonly is used to arrest bleeding during surgical procedures. However, complications such as postoperative hemorrhage can occur because of the development of cross-reactive anti-bovine antibodies that inhibit human coagulation factor V. It would thus be advantageous to develop techniques to generate human thrombin. This study evaluated thrombin produced from

Does hormonal therapy improve sperm retrieval rates in men with non-obstructive azoospermia : a systematic review and meta-analysis

BACKGROUND: The beneficial effects of hormonal therapy in stimulating spermatogenesis in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and either normal gonadotrophins or hypergonadotropic hypogonadism prior to surgical sperm retrieval (SSR) is controversial. Although the European Association of Urology guidelines state that hormone stimulation is not recommended in routine clinical practice, a

Pathogenic T-cell responses in patients with autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura

Autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura (AITP) is a bleeding disorder in which autoantibodies are directed against an individual's own platelets, leading to enhanced clearance through Fc receptor (R)-mediated phagocytosis by macrophages residing in the reticuloendothelial system, particularly in the spleen. This review surveys the recent current literature and updates our understanding of the cell-med

T cell and cytokine abnormalities in patients with autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura

Autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura (AITP) is a bleeding disorder in which autoantibodies are directed against an individual's own platelets, leading to enhanced clearance through Fc receptor (R)-mediated phagocytosis by macrophages residing in the reticuloendothelial system, particularly in the spleen. Although the immunopathogenesis of the disease is autoantibody-mediated, there is now substanti

Immune pathophysiology of autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura

Chronic autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura (AITP) is an immune-mediated, bleeding disorder in which platelets are opsonized by autoantibodies and prematurely destroyed by phagocytic cells in the reticuloendothelial system. It is classed as an organ-specific autoimmune disease primarily mediated by immunoglobulin G (IgG) autoantibodies and its etiology appears to be similar to that observed for ot
