    Bruton’s kinase (Btk) is critical for collagen-triggered platelet signal transduction. The Btk inhibitor ibrutinib has been shown to selectively block platelet adhesion to atherosclerotic plaque material under laminar arterial flow. However, this has not been studied under a shear gradient, which is characteristic for atherothrombosis.

    • Ibrutinib ⬇️ in vitro platelet deposition, thrombus size & contraction on human atherosclerotic plaque around a stenosis when compared to patients not receiving ibrutinib. Interesting but causes HT in vivo so may offset a beneficial effect on CV events https://t.co/4ZknVmX7UW

    Pulmonary infarction results from occlusion of the distal pulmonary arteries leading to ischemia, hemorrhage and ultimately necrosis of the lung parenchyma. It is most commonly caused by acute pulmonary embolism (PE), with a reported incidence of around 30%. Following an occlusion of the pulmonary artery, the bronchial arteries are recruited as primary source of perfusion of the pulmonary…

    Pregnancy-associated high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) is among the most frequent causes of maternal mortality in the Western world, by causing hemodynamic instability and circulatory failure through a large thrombotic pulmonary obstruction. The very challenging management of these dramatic situations comprises the need to quickly select a therapy of pulmonary reperfusion or hemodynamic…
