Hypercoagulability in response to elevated body temperature and central hypovolemia

TLDR
It is hypothesize that elevated body temperature and reduced CBV contributes to hypercoagulability, possibly due to moderate sympathetic activation, in critically ill patients and speculate that normalization of bodyTemperature and CBV may attenuate this hyper coagulable response.

Hyperinflammation and derangement of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in COVID-19: A novel hypothesis for clinically suspected hypercoagulopathy and microvascular immunothrombosis.

TL;DR: The underlying pathogenesis and the interaction between multiple systems, resulting in propagation of immunothrombosis, are discussed and may lead to both an improved understanding of COVID-19 pathophysiology and identification of innovative and efficient therapeutic targets to reverse the otherwise unfavorable clinical outcome of many of these patients.

Human Cardiovascular Responses to Passive Heat Stress

TL;DR: Understanding the mechanisms within this complex regulatory system will allow for the development of treatment recommendations and countermeasures to reduce risks during the ever-increasing frequency of severe heat events that are predicted to occur.

The four horsemen of a viral Apocalypse: The pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19).

TL;DR: The pathogenesis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) may be envisaged as the dynamic interaction between four vicious feedback loops chained or happening at once, which are the viral loop, the hyperinflammatoryloop, the non-canonical renin-angiotensin system (RAS) axis loop, and the hypercoagulation loop.

Physiological factors characterizing heat-vulnerable older adults: A narrative review.

TL;DR: Current understanding of the physiological mechanisms by which aging impairs the regulation of body temperature, hemodynamic stability and hydration status is summarized and how age-associated chronic health conditions may exacerbate those impairments are examined.

Definitions for Sepsis and Organ Failure and Guidelines for the Use of Innovative Therapies in Sepsis

TL;DR: An American College of Chest Physicians/Society of Critical Care Medicine Consensus Conference was held in Northbrook in August 1991 with the goal of agreeing on a set of definitions that could be applied to patients with sepsis and its sequelae as mentioned in this paper.

The endothelial glycocalyx: composition, functions, and visualization

TL;DR: A review of state-of-the-art knowledge on the composition and functions of the endothelial glycocalyx can be found in this article, where the contribution of the glyocalyx to diabetes, ischemia/reperfusion, and atherosclerosis is also reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation and coagulation.

TL;DR: It is shown that activation of the coagulation system and ensuing thrombin generation is dependent on expression of tissue factor and the simultaneous down-regulation of endothelial-bound anticoagulant mechanisms and endogenous fibrinolysis, and activated coagulations may affect specific cellular receptors on inflammatory cells and endothelial cells and thereby modulate the inflammatory response.

Acute Coagulopathy of Trauma: Hypoperfusion Induces Systemic Anticoagulation and Hyperfibrinolysis

TL;DR: Acute coagulopathy of trauma is associated with systemic hypoperfusion and is characterized by anticoagulation and hyperfibrinolysis, which correlates with thrombomodulin activity.

The electronic aggregometer: a novel device for assessing platelet behavior in blood.

TL;DR: The new technique is very suitable for investigating platelet pharmacology, since the inhibitors of aggregation, such as indomethacin and prostacyclin, can be conveniently quantitated in blood by using this technique.
