Mashup Score: 1
The concept of normal in hematology, similar to that in other areas of medicine, is anchored to the perspective of those setting the standard. This means that several laboratory reference intervals and approaches to the conditions of thrombosis and hemostasis are influenced by the vantage point of those in power. Structural inequity, including systemic racism and sexism, can lead to inappropriate…

Mashup Score: 2Recanalization and Outcomes After Cerebral Venous Thrombosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis - 1 year(s) ago
Recanalization in cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) can begin as early as one week after initiating therapeutic anticoagulation. The clinical significance of recanalization remains uncertain. We investigated the association between recanalization and functional outcomes, and explored predictors of recanalization.

Mashup Score: 1A novel association between filamin A and SNARE proteins regulates platelet granule secretion - 1 year(s) ago
The molecular mechanisms that underpin platelet granule secretion remain poorly defined. Filamin A (FLNA) is an actin-crosslinking and signaling scaffold protein whose role in granule exocytosis has not been explored despite evidence that FLNA gene mutations confer platelet defects in humans. Using platelets from platelet-specific conditional Flna-knockout mice, we show that the loss of FLNA…
