Infection with Toxoplasma gondii triggers coagulation at the blood-brain barrier and a reduction in cerebral blood flow.
J Neuroinflammation
January 2025
Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, University of California Irvine, Irvine, 92697, USA.
Background: Immunothrombosis is the process by which the coagulation cascade interacts with the innate immune system to control infection. However, the formation of clots within the brain vasculature can be detrimental to the host. Recent work has demonstrated that Toxoplasma gondii infects and lyses central nervous system (CNS) endothelial cells that form the blood-brain barrier (BBB).

Diagnosis involves confirming the persistence of antiphospholipid antibodies in symptomatic patients, using validated classification criteria as a guide. The likelihood of obtaining false-positive or false-negative test results in certain settings, and the lack of standardisation between laboratory methods, are important considerations.

Purpose: To compare the outcomes of using prophylactic direct oral anti-coagulants (DOAC) and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) after major urologic surgery.
Materials And Methods: Systematic literature searches of MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane CENTRAL were performed up to 9 November 2023, and protocols were registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024494424). The primary outcomes were post-operative incidence of VTE and bleeding.
Pregnancy Outcomes in Non-Criteria Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome: Analysis of a Cohort of 91 Patients.

Department of Autoimmune Diseases, Reference Centre for Systemic Autoimmune Diseases (UEC/CSUR) of the Catalan and Spanish Health Systems-Member of ERNReCONNET, Hospital Clínic, University of Barcelona, 08036 Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
: The clinical and laboratory features of patients with non-criteria obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome (NC-OAPS), as well as their pregnancy outcomes and ideal treatment are not clearly determined. The aim of this study is to describe the characteristics and outcomes of pregnancies in NC-OAPS and compare them with an obstetric APS (OAPS) cohort. : This is a retrospective study conducted on a cohort of women referred to a high-risk obstetric unit of a tertiary hospital.

Department of Practice, Sciences, and Health Outcomes Research, School of Pharmacy, University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) can lead to significant healthcare resource utilization (HcRU) and costs. First-line treatments such as direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOAC) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) are utilized for VTE management. There are limited observational studies to determine which first-line drug for VTE is associated with lower HcRU and cost.
