Despite the frequent use of antiplatelet medication (AM) in the elderly patients, very few studies have investigated its prescription. We describe AM prescription through retrospective study in ambulatory elderl
Identification of antiplatelet medication is enabled through the use of TEG-PM [40]. For assessment of platelet function through the POC device Platelet Function Analyser (PFA)-100 (Siemens Diagnostics, Deerfield, IL, USA) a sample of citrated whole blood is aspirated at shear rates through ...
Disorder (qualitative) in hemoglobin structure: Production of structurally abnormal globulin chains such as Hb S, C, O, or E. Sickle cell syndrome is the most common example of such disease. ▪ Failure to switch globin chain synthesis after birth: Hereditary persistence of Hb F, a relatively...
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cerebro-occlusive disease with unknown etiology that can cause both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. MMD is characterized by progressive stenosis of the terminal internal carotid artery (ICA) and development of basal brai
•Tell your specialist if you are using any medication that can prolong bleeding, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood thinners, as this may increase bruising or bleeding at the injection site •Tell your specialist if you are planning laser treatment, chemical peeling, or any other ...
The nomogram incorporated lesion site, the use of antiplatelet medications, drug-eluting technology employment, calibration processes, the presence of coronary heart disease, and the international normalized ratio (INR) as predictive components. The calibration ability of the prediction model was deemed ...
Take extra care when injecting soft tissue fillers; for example, after insertion of the needle and just before injection, the plunger rod can be withdrawn slightly to aspirate and verify the needle is not intravascular, inject the product slowly, and apply the least amount of pressure necessary....

Fig. 6. Structures of steroid hormone-derived sodium phosphate drugs 18–22. The anabolic steroids analogues, dexamethasone sodium phosphate (Aacidexam/Alba-Dex/Decadrol/Dexacort/Hexadrol/Oradexon®) (19) is developed to replace its parent drug testosterone in clinical application. For example, ...
The symbiosis between fungus-farming ants (Attini, Formicidae), their cultivated fungi, garden-infecting Escovopsis pathogens, and Pseudonocardia bacteria on the ant integument has been popularized as an example of ant–Escovopsis–Pseudonocardia co-evolution. Recent research could not verify earlier ...
