Platelet aggregation test (PAgT), platelet adhesion test (PAdT), thromboplastic activity of factor Ⅷ (FⅧ∶c), antithrombin Ⅲ activity (AT-Ⅲ∶a), antithrombin Ⅲ antigen (AT-Ⅲ∶Ag), von willebrand factor (vWF) and fibrinogen (Fg) were measured in 33 patients with biliary tract diseases and 24 normal individuals. The results showed that there was no significant difference in PAgT, PAdT, AT-Ⅲ∶a and AT-Ⅲ∶Ag between the two groups (Ｐ＞0.05). Fg increased more significantly in biliary tract disease than in the controls (Ｐ＜0.01). FⅧ∶c increased more significantly in patients with obstructive jaundice than in that of nonjaundiced and the controls (Ｐ＜0.01). The levels of vWF increased higher and higher in the sequence of patients with no jaundice, obstructive jaundice due to benign diseases and obstructive jaundice due to malignancy(Ｐ＜0.01). In conclusion, Fg, FⅧ∶c and vWF increased in patients with biliary tract disease.
ObjectiveTo collect and analyze the clinical data and quality of life of hemophilic children, understand the present condition of these patients in Sichuan Province, and analyze related influencing factors. MethodWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of hemophilic children treated in our hospital from January 1, 2008 to May 30, 2015. ResultsThere were 92 child patients from Sichuan Province with a median age of 9.6 years old (ranging from 3.6 to 18.0). There were 87 cases (94.6%) of hemophilia A and 5 (5.4%) of hemophilia B; the number of light cases was 4 (4.3%), of moderate cases was 67 (72.8%), and of severe cases was 21 (22.9%); eighteen (19.6) of the patients had family history. First bleeding episode occurred at a median age of 11 months (0-48 months). Mild bleeding occurred in 23 cases (25.0%), moderate bleeding in 31 cases (33.7%), and severe bleeding in 38 cases (41.3%). First bleeding site was mainly the mucous membrane of the skin, followed by the joint muscles. Fist joint bleeding occurred at a median age of 18 months (2-107 months). Forty-six patients (59.0%) had severe joint damage during the course of the disease. Intracranial hemorrhage occurred in 4 patients (4.3%), among whom 3 were cured and discharged from the hospital, and 1 had neurological sequelae. Median diagnostic age was 12 months (0-120 months). Sixty-two (67.4%) were diagnosed in a short period of time, 9 (9.8%) in a mediate period of time, and 21 (22.8%) in a long period of time. Forty (43.5%) of the patients had been given sufficient coagulation factors, while all the others had not received sufficient replacement therapy. Fifty-six (60.9%) children had received prophylactic treatment. First prophylaxis was administrated at a median age of 36 months (1-199 months), but 27 (48.2%) discontinued. The median score of the 29 retreated Disease Burden Scale was 22.7±11.6 (4-43), and among them, 11 (37.9%) could not care for themselves. Twenty-three participated in the assessment of social activity ability, among whom, 2 did not attend school, and 6 could not take part in the assessment because of school learning. Correlation analysis showed that there was no significant relationship between diagnostic timing and family history (P=0.795) or between diagnostic timing and areas they came from (P=0.495). However, significant association was found between diagnostic timing and the severity of first bleeding (r=0.392, P=0.035). Disease burden of family was significantly correlated with the number of target joints (r=0.370, P=0.048), and was not closely related with area, severity of bleeding, frequency of hemorrhage, medical insurance, or physical and social activities. ConclusionsThe general diagnosis and treatment condition of child hemophilia in Sichuan is relatively under-developed with a high prevalence of joint damage, poor quality of life, and high disease burden to the family. Improvement in the care of hemophilia children is urgently needed.
Objective To investigate whether the sleep-induced hypoxemia ( SIH) at different time and different level have different effects on pulmonary emphysema and coagulation systemfunction in the rats with pulmonary emphysema. Methods Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups( n = 10 in each group) . All rats were exposed to cigarette smoke twice a day ( 30 min each time) . From29th day on, the rats in Group A ( pulmonary emphysema with short SIH) were also exposed to mixed gas of 12. 5% oxygen for 1. 5 hours during sleeping time every day ( the expose time was divided into 4 periods, 22. 5 min each) . The rats in Group B ( pulmonary emphysema with mild SIH) were also exposed to mixed gas of 15% oxygen for three hours during sleeping time every day( the expose time was divided into 4 periods, 45 min each) . The rats in Group C( pulmonary emphysema with standard SIH) were also exposed to mixed gas of 12. 5% oxygen for three hours during sleeping time every day( the expose time was divided into 4 periods,45 min each) . After continuous exposure for 56 days, the rats were sacrificed. Semi-quantitative image analytic method was employed for histopathological analysis including pathological score of lungs, mean linear intercept ( MLI) and mean alveolus number( MAN) . ATⅢ, FIB, vWF, FⅧ were measured. Results All animals in three groups manifested the histopathological features of emphysema. Pathological scores of lungs and MLI of every group were significantly different from each other( F = 21. 907, F = 18. 415, all P lt; 0. 05) , Group A [ ( 61. 90 ±4. 25) % , ( 92. 45 ±1. 78) μm] and Group B[ ( 64. 60 ±3. 95) % , ( 92. 80 ±3. 65) μm] were significantly lower than Group C[ ( 73. 30 ±3. 86) % , ( 99. 32 ±2. 81) μm, q= 8. 96, q =6. 84, q = 12. 64, q =9. 65, all P lt; 0. 05] . Levels of FIB were significantly different among three groups ( F = 20. 592, P lt; 0. 05) while FIB in Group A[ ( 189. 98 ±5. 29) mg/ dL] and Group B[ ( 182. 70 ±2. 78) mg /dL] were significantly lower than that in Group C[ ( 198. 40 ±7. 37) mg/ dL, q = 4. 86, q= 9. 07, all P lt; 0. 05] , and FIB in Group A was significantly higher than that in Group B( q = 4. 20, P lt; 0. 05) . Levels of FⅧ were significantly different from each other( F = 33. 652, P lt;0. 05) while FⅧ in Group A[ ( 232. 26 ±4. 17) % ]and Group B[ ( 242. 53 ±14. 50) % ] were significantly lower than that in Group C[ ( 303. 25 ±32. 93) % ,q= 10. 73, q = 9. 18, all P lt; 0. 05] . Conclusions Pulmonary emphysema and hypercoagulable states increases with time and severity of SIH in rats with pulmonary emphysema. The elevated activity of blood coagulation factor may be a critical role in the hypercoagulable states.
Exercise has been increasingly recognized in clinical guidelines as a recommended component of rehabilitation for people with hemophilia (PWH), with evidence supporting appropriate physical activity’s multifaceted benefits. During exercise, the bleeding risk in PWH exhibits a critical correlation with circulating clotting factor activities, where higher factor concentrations demonstrably reduce hemorrhagic events. However, economic constraints limit universal access to high-dose prophylactic clotting factor replacement therapy. Through pharmacokinetics (PK) monitoring of clotting factor, clinicians can strategically tailor exercise types and frequencies, or adjust factor replacement dosages based on activity-specific demands. This individualized approach not only enhances the cost-effectiveness of clotting factor utilization, but also improves safety by mitigating bleeding risks. This article examines the feasibility and recent advancements in PK-guided individualized physical activity prescriptions for PWH, presenting evidence-based insights to inform clinical practice and future research priorities.

Methods Thirteen children aged 3 to 11 years old with severe or moderate hemophilia A were included in the present study from November 2008 to April 2009. For children in the treatment group, they were treated with low-dose short-course infusion of recombinant human factor Ⅷ concentration with a dose of 7.5-10.0 U/kg twice weekly as secondary prophylaxis for two months. The incidence of joint bleeding 2 months before treatment (control group) and during the 2 months of treatment (treatment group) was observed. Moreover, the incidence of their target joint bleeding was measured in both groups. Results Children in the control group had (3.77±2.13) joint bleedings while children in the treatment group had (0.46±0.87) joint bleedings, which was obviously lower than those in the control group (Plt;0.01). Meanwhile, the incidence of target joint bleeding in the treatment group was 0%, which was obviously lower than that in the control group (35.7%) (Plt;0.01). In the treatment group, the costs of treatment were about RMB 510-680 yuan/kg every 2 months. Conclusions Treatment with low-dose short-course infusion of recombinant human factor Ⅷ concentration can effectively decrease joint bleeding in children with severe and moderate hemophilia A, and can effectively decrease the incidence of target joint bleeding. Therefore, this method may play an important role in protection of the joint function in those patients at an acceptable cost.
