Background: To evaluate residual fibrinolysis resistance activity (FRA) in plasma, a detergent-modified plasma clot lysis assay time (dPCLT) was established in which α2-antiplasmin (A2AP) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are inactivated without impacting protease activity. We applied this novel assay to severely injured trauma patients' plasma.
Material And Methods: Tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA)-induced plasma clot lysis assays were conducted after detergents- (dPCLT) or vehicle- (sPCLT) treatment, and time to 50% clot lysis was measured ("transition midpoint", T ).

Background: The role of a prothrombotic state in atrial fibrillation (AF) progression to permanent arrythmia (PerAF) is unclear. Formation of denser and poorly lysable fibrin clots has been observed in AF patients also with sinus rhythm in association with higher stroke risk. We investigated whether altered fibrin clot properties and other prothrombotic state markers may contribute to AF transition to PerAF.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent malignancy with a substantial health burden and high mortality rate, despite advances in prevention, early detection, and treatment. Compared with the global average, Asia, notably China, reports disproportionately high GC incidences. The disease often progresses asymptomatically in the early stages, leading to delayed diagnosis and compromised outcomes.

Backgrounds/aims: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a vision-devastating emergency. However, widely-acknowledged treatment consensus is lacking and prehospital delays commonly occur. Hence, we aimed to investigate the visual outcomes of conservative treatments (CT), local intra-arterial fibrinolysis (LIF) and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy for non-arteritic CRAO (NA-CRAO) patients beyond the conventional time window.

Background: Effective hemorrhage protocols prioritize immediate hemostatic resuscitation to manage hemorrhagic shock. Prehospital resuscitation using blood products, such as whole blood or alternatively dried plasma in its absence, has the potential to improve outcomes in hemorrhagic shock patients. However, integrating blood products into prehospital care poses substantial logistical challenges due to issues with storage, transport, and administration in field environments.
