Ir-CPI, a coagulation contact phase inhibitor from the tick Ixodes ricinus, inhibits thrombus formation without impairing hemostasis.

3 Oct 2009 Blood coagulation starts immediately after damage to the vascular endothelium. This system is essential for minimizing blood loss from an injured blood vessel but also contributes to vascular thrombosis. Although it has long been thought that the ... Read more...

Prevention of thrombosis in ambulatory patients with cancer.

12 Sep 2009 Cancer patients with solid tumors or hematologic malignancies receive most of their cancer treatment as outpatients. Thromboembolism, when it occurs, complicates the clinical care of these patients because of the associated morbidity and the need ... Read more...

Catheter-associated thrombosis in patients with malignancy.

6 Sep 2009 Central venous catheters are widely used in the care of patients with cancer. Indwelling catheters are associated with upper extremity deep venous thrombosis in some patients, and recognition of this entity is an important aspect of treating ... Read more...
