Candidate gene analysis of the fibrinogen phenotype reveals the importance of polygenic co-regulation
(Elsevier, 2017)Fibrinogen and its functional aspects have been linked to cardiovascular disease. There is vast discrepancy between the heritability of fibrinogen concentrations observed in twin studies and the heritability uncovered by ... -
Interpretation and validation of maximum absorbance data obtained from turbidimetry analysis of plasma clots
(Thieme, 2020)Turbidimetry is used to characterize fibrin clot properties. In purified systems, maximum absorbance (MA) directly relates to fibrin fiber cross-sectional area. However, in plasma samples there are discrepancies in the ... -
Mechanical and physical behavior of fibrin clot formation and lysis in combined oral contraceptive users
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2020)Combined oral contraceptives (COCs) are commonly prescribed and increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). We have previously found that two COCs, both containing drospirenone (DRSP) and ethinyl estradiol (EE), ... -
Plasma phospholipid fatty acids are associated with altered fibrin clot properties in a population-based setting
(Elsevier, 2019)Evidence regarding the relationship of plasma clot properties with fatty acids is contradictory, owing to different experimental protocols employed. The relationship of fibrinogen and plasma fibrin clot properties with ...
