Daboxin P, reported earlier from the venom of Daboia russellii, disturbs the blood coagulation cascade by targeting factor X and factor Xa. The present study exhibits that Daboxin P also inhibits platelet aggregation induced by various agonists. The thrombin-induced platelet aggregation was inhibited maximum whereas inhibition of collagen-induced platelet aggregation was found to be 50% and no inhibition of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and arachidonic acid-induced aggregation was observed. Daboxin P dose-dependently inhibited the thrombin-induced platelet aggregation with Anti-Aggregation 50 (AD ) dose of 55.166 nM and also reduced the thrombin-mediated calcium influx. In-silico interaction studies suggested that Daboxin P binds to thrombin and blocks its interaction with its receptor on the platelet surface. Quenching of thrombin's emission spectrum by Daboxin P and electrophoretic profiles of pull-down assay further reveals the binding between Daboxin P and thrombin. Thus, the present study demonstrates that Daboxin P inhibits thrombin-induced platelet aggregation by binding to thrombin.

The benefit of aspirin in primary prevention for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) is questionable due to bleeding complications. We analyzed the Korean National Health Insurance data to compare the efficacy and overall bleeding of sarpogrelate, an antiplatelet agent with lower bleeding risk, versus aspirin in high-/very-high-risk diabetic populations without prior ASCVD. The primary endpoint was net adverse clinical events (NACE), defined as a composite of efficacy and overall bleeding.

Background And Aims: Due to the multitude of risk factors outlined in the guidelines, personalised dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) guidance after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is complex. A simplified method was created to facilitate the use of risk stratification. We aimed to compare the predictive and prognostic value of the 'Zuidoost Nederland Hart Registratie' (ZON-HR) classification for bleeding risk with the PREdicting bleeding Complications In patients undergoing Stent implantation and subsEquent DAPT (PRECISE-DAPT) score and to determine the effect of ticagrelor monotherapy versus DAPT in patients with or without high bleeding risk (HBR).

Ticagrelor has become the standard drug for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) with flow diverters (FDs), but the dosage has not been standardized. The effect of platelet function on clinical and imaging prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to show the effects of different doses of ticagrelor and platelet aggregation function on the clinical and imaging prognosis after FDs treatment of aneurysms.

Background: Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) has been used in reconstructive microsurgery since the inception of the field. However, when compared to placebo groups, its efficacy is not confirmed. In our study, we hypothesize that the utility of ASA postoperatively in microvascular surgery is not associated with improved outcomes.

Coronary artery disease remains a significant global health issue and is a leading cause of mortality. Dual antiplatelet therapy, including clopidogrel, is essential for preventing stent thrombosis after coronary artery stenting. This study assessed the comparative efficacy and safety of generic versus brand-name clopidogrel in a large Taiwanese cohort.
