Abstract

Thrombosis has been recognized as one of the most significant risk factors of high mortality and disability in patients with Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). However, the risk factors of thrombotic events in these patients have not been completely understood. In this study, the clinical data of 58 patients with Ph-MPNs were obtained and analyzed, including 34 cases of essential thrombocytopenia (ET), 23 thrombotic events happened in 21 (36%) patients, among which 60% (14 of 23) with cerebral infarction, 17% (4 of 23) with coronary heart disease and 23% (5 of 23) with venous thrombosis. There were no significant differences in age, sex, and blood cell count between polycythemia vera (PV) and ET patients who have experienced thrombotic events and those who have not. In ET patients, the incidence of thrombotic events in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) genotype 4G4G was significantly higher than that in genotype 4G5G and genotype 5G5G (P < .05). The incidence of thrombotic events in PV and ET patients with infection was higher than those without infection (P < .05). Using logistic regression analysis, we found that PAI-1 genotype 4G4G and infection were associated with thrombotic ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
