Res Pract Thromb Haemost
October 2024
Article Synopsis
- Sepsis-induced DIC is a serious condition with high morbidity and mortality, and factors like endothelial injury and extracellular vesicles (EV) are crucial in its development.
- The study examined the role of E-selectin, EV, tissue factor (TF), and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) in identifying sepsis-induced coagulopathy by analyzing plasma samples from 87 sepsis patients.
- Findings indicated that while only TFPI and TF-PCA levels could effectively discriminate between patients with and without DIC, higher levels of TFPI specifically correlated with worsening DIC, suggesting that these markers could enhance diagnosis and treatment strategies in septic patients.
Eur J Ophthalmol
November 2024
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how the longest treatment-free interval (TFI) between anti-VEGF injections affects visual acuity and the recurrence of macular edema in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) over five years.
- - It included 60 patients with an average age of nearly 72, finding that 72% experienced recurrence of macular edema, with significant predictors being TFI and initial visual acuity.
- - The results suggest that longer TFIs lead to worse visual outcomes and higher rates of macular edema recurrence, indicating the need for more frequent injections in cases of severe BRVO.
