Collaborative overview of randomized trials of antiplatelet therapy .1. prevention of death, myocardial-infarction, and stroke by prolonged antiplatelet therapy in various categories of patients

R Altman, +418 more

TL;DR: There was no appreciable evidence that either a higher aspirin dose or any other antiplatelet regimen was more effective than medium dose aspirin in preventing vascular events, so in each of the four main high risk categories overall mortality was significantly reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Application of Inhibitors of Fibrinolysis

TL;DR: The main indications for tranexamic acid are the prevention of excessive bleeding after tonsillectomy, prostatic surgery, and cervical conisation, and primary and IUD-induced menorrhagia, and the addition of aprotinin seems to decrease the incidence of delayed cerebral vasospasm and ischaemic complications which are sometimes noted when tranExamic acid alone is used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravenous and intrapulmonary recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator in the treatment of acute massive pulmonary embolism.

TL;DR: Eight centers participated in a study in which intrapulmonary and intravenous administration of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) were compared in 34 patients with acute massive pulmonary embolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thrombolysis with Human Extrinsic (Tissue-Type) Plasminogen Activator in Rabbits with Experimental Jugular Vein Thrombosis. EFFECT OF MOLECULAR FORM AND DOSE OF ACTIVATOR, AGE OF THE THROMBUS, AND ROUTE OF ADMINISTRATION

TL;DR: In this article, a simple venous thrombosis model was used for the quantitative evaluation of the thrombolytic effect of human extrinsic (tissue-type) plasminogen activator as compared with urokinase.
