Article Synopsis
- In chronic liver disease, trace element levels in plasma are typically low, but the reasons behind this and its functional impacts are not fully understood.
- A study on 31 male patients with compensated liver cirrhosis aimed to assess their nutritional status and plasma trace element profiles, correlating these with disease severity.
- Findings revealed that a significant number of patients were malnourished or overweight, and alterations in trace elements like manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), selenium (Se), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg) were noted, with malnutrition influencing trace element levels more than disease severity did.
Enoxaparin is an anticoagulant widely used in the treatment and prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The subcutaneous route of administration, sometimes in repeated doses during 24 hours, represents a limitation to its use. Thus, the development of a product that can be administered either subcutaneously, in a smaller number of applications becomes a major challenge, with interesting clinical applications.
