Objective: To determine pre-delivery fibrinogen levels in predicting adverse maternal or neonatal outcomes in patients with placental abruption.
Materials And Method: We conducted a retrospective study of all women admitted for placental abruption between January 2012 and May 2018. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), massive blood transfusion and hospitalization in intensive care unit parameters were evaluated for maternal outcomes. For the neonatal outcomes, the 5th minute APGAR score, umbilical artery pH and stillbirth were evaluated.
Results: The mean predelivery fibrinogen levels were 221.3 ± 111.6 mg/dL. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, fibrinogen level was determined as an independent indicator for PPH, red cell concentrate (RCC) and fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion. When fibrinogen levels decreased below 130 mg/dL, the risk of PPH increased and when fibrinogen levels decreased below 100 mg/dL, the risk of overt DİC and also the risk of red cell concentrate and fresh frozen plasma transfusion increased. In terms of the fetal results, there may be adverse neonatal outcomes when fibrinogen levels are below 250 mg/dL.
Conclusion: Predelivery fibrinogen levels are good indicators for predicting adverse maternal outcomes in placental abruption cases. In addition, fibrinogen levels might be a guide for management of placental abruption cases.

Objective: Here, we aim to investigate whether D-dimer (DD)/fibrinogen (FIB) ratio or combination of DD and FIB contribute to the prognosis of stroke and stroke subtypes.
Methods: 1413 patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) were recruited. We measured DD and FIB levels on admission and followed up with patients at discharge and 90-day following discharge.
Elevated tissue factor pathway inhibitor is associated with intracerebral haemorrhage of unknown cause in young adults.

Clinical Rationale For Study: We have reported that intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) of unknown cause at a young age is associated with lower prothrombin and factor VII and higher antithrombin activity, along with the formation of looser fibrin networks displaying enhanced lysability. Patients with mild-to-moderate bleeding of unknown cause have elevated levels of free plasma tissue factor pathway inhibitor alpha (fTFPIα), inhibiting the tissue factor-factor VII complex and prothrombinase.
Aim Of Study: We hypothesised that patients with an intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) of unknown cause may also exhibit higher fTFPIα.
Blood-brain barrier disruption and microglial activation during hypoxia and post-hypoxic recovery in aged mice.

Hypoxia triggers blood-brain barrier disruption and a strong microglial activation response around leaky cerebral blood vessels. These events are greatly amplified in aged mice which is translationally relevant because aged patients are far more likely to suffer hypoxic events from heart or lung disease, and because of the pathogenic role of blood-brain barrier breakdown in vascular dementia. Importantly, it is currently unclear if disrupted cerebral blood vessels spontaneously repair and if they do, whether surrounding microglia deactivates.

Serum levels of vitamin D (VD) are inversely correlated with the incidence or severity of COVID-19. This study aimed to investigate the effects of inactivated COVID-19 virus (ICoV-19) immunization on VD levels, as well as biochemical and hematological parameters in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. Twenty rats were randomly divided into two groups of 10: the control group (group I) and the ICoV-19-receiving group (group II).

Background: Little is known about the role of D-dimer (DD) on the prognosis of patients undergoing coronary endarterectomy (CE) combined with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Methods: A total of 371 patients undergoing CE with CABG between January 2018 and July 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. The primary endpoint was the perioperative major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE).
