Making sense of the preclinical literature on advanced hemostatic products

The Journal of Trauma
Anthony E PusateriKathy L Ryan

Abstract

A number of new hemostatic products have been developed recently for use in trauma settings of severe uncontrolled bleeding. Currently, the literature on these products is controversial, with efficacy demonstrated under some circumstances but not others. In this review, we analyze the current literature pertaining to four of the most promising products (dry fibrin sealant dressing, Rapid Deployment Hemostat, HemCon chitosan dressing, and QuikClot) that have been suggested for use in combat casualty care applications. In particular, this analysis takes into account the characteristics of the animal models used for efficacy testing of these products, the desired characteristics of hemostatic dressings, and specific safety considerations. Animal models ranged from those featuring low-pressure/low-flow bleeding to those featuring high-pressure/high-flow bleeding. When data are viewed in the context of the specific characteristics of the differing animal models used, seemingly disparate experimental results related to efficacy and safety become quite complementary and lead to recommendations for the use of different products in different injury scenarios. Mission and training requirements will dictate the use of these products by mi...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.
