MethodsInhibition of FXa by TFPI in plasma was determined by measuring thrombin 432 generation triggered with FXa, the FX activator from Russell’s viper venom (RVV-X), FXIa, or FIXa. TF-independent anticoagulant activities of TFPI and its cofactor, proteinS, were quantified: (i) after neutralization of TFPI and proteinS with anti-TFPI or anti-proteinS antibodies; and (ii) in TFPI-depleted or proteinS-depleted plasmas supplemented with varying amounts of TFPI or proteinS. ResultsBoth anti-TFPI and anti-proteinS antibodies
enhanced thrombin generation in plasma triggered with RVV-X, FXa, FIXa, or FXIa. Anti-TFPI and anti-proteinS antibodies decreased the lag time and increased the peak height of thrombin generation to the PKA inhibitor same extent, indicating that inhibition of FXa by TFPI requires the presence of proteinS. TFPI and proteinS titrations in TFPI-depleted or proteinS-depleted plasma in which thrombin formation was initiated with triggers other than TF also revealed TF-independent anticoagulant activity of TFPI, which was completely dependent on the presence of proteinS. ConclusionDirect inhibition of FXa by TFPI contributes to the downregulation of coagulation.”
“Magnetic resonance imaging is increasingly used to assess neonatal hypoxic-ischemic
injury, and several scoring systems were developed to predict neurologic outcomes in these patients.

Using a seven-point susceptibility-weighted imaging categorical grading scale, each patient received a “prominence
of vein” score, which was dichotomized into a “normal” or “abnormal” group. Six-month outcomes were assessed using the Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category Scale. We then determined whether “prominence of vein” scores correlated with neurologic outcomes in patients with hypoxic-ischemic injuries, and compared these results with the Barkovich magnetic resonance imaging scoring system. Patients with “normal” “prominence of vein” scores demonstrated better outcomes (mean Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category Scale value = 2) than patients with “abnormal” “prominence of vein” scores (mean Pediatric Cerebral Performance Selleck STA-9090 Category Scale value = 4). The dichotomized “prominence of vein” groups demonstrated correlations with the Barkovich magnetic resonance imaging scores of the proton density-weighted basal ganglia, watershed, and combined basal ganglia/watershed regions. The susceptibility-weighted imaging categorical grading scale may aid in predicting neurologic outcomes after hypoxic-ischemic injuries. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.”
