The hemostatic balance is a complex system where the delicate equilibrium is regulated by several factors including hormones. A variety of endocrine disorders have been reported to be associated with coagulation abnormalities, ranging from mild laboratory changes to clinically relevant thrombotic or bleeding manifestations. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the main abnormalities of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems associated with thyroid dysfunctions. Overall, although mostly based on uncontrolled studies, data in the literature suggest that patients with hyperthyroidism or subclinical hypothyroidism have a hypercoagulative state, whereas patients with overt hypothyroidism have a bleeding tendency.

Background: Clot waveform analysis (CWA) provides a global assessment of hemostasis and may be useful for patients with cirrhosis with complex hemostatic abnormalities. This study aimed to assess the association between prothrombin time (PT-) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT-) based CWA parameters and cirrhosis severity and prospectively evaluate the role of CWA in predicting mortality and acute decompensation (AD) over 1 year.
Methods: This prospective study included adult patients with cirrhosis between June 2021 and December 2023 at Chulalongkorn University Hospital.

COVID-19, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), primarily manifests as a flu-like illness with lung injury, often necessitating supplemental oxygen. Elderly individuals and those with pre-existing cardiovascular diseases are at increased risk of mortality. The endothelial barrier disruption observed in patients indicates systemic viral invasion and widespread endotheliitis.

Background: The pathophysiological evolutions involved in early-stage Alzheimer's disease (AD) are not well understood.
Methods: We used data of 2,923 plasma proteins from 51,296 non-demented middle-aged adults in the UK Biobank with 15 years of follow-up. We first identified AD-associated proteins using Cox proportional hazard models and then delineated their temporal sequences to characterize the pathophysiological evolution.

: Mulberries exhibit antioxidant properties that may attenuate metabolic abnormalities. Kamphaeng Saen mulberry (KPS-MB-42-1) contains anthocyanins, polyphenols, and nutrients, but few studies have explored its benefits for human health. This study investigated the effects of a concentrated mulberry drink (CMD) from the KPS-MB-42-1 cultivar on metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors in obese individuals.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technique used to support severe cardiopulmonary failure. Its potential life-saving benefits are tempered by the significant risk for acute brain injury (ABI), from both primary pathophysiologic factors and ECMO-related complications through central nervous system cellular injury, blood-brain barrier dysfunction (BBB), systemic inflammation and neuroinflammation, and coagulopathy. Plasma biomarkers are an emerging tool used to stratify risk for and diagnose ABI, and prognosticate neurofunctional outcomes.
