Scanning electron microscopy of fibrin networks in XXXX : a qualitative analysis.

@entity309 is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects mainly @entity2720 and has an impact on approximately 1% of the Western population. The coagulation process is altered in this condition, and this is frequently complicated by @entity1148 . Changes in fibrin morphology have been linked with @entity32 , and this, in turn, plays an important role in @entity715 . Changes in the fibrin fiber formation cause the alterations observed in @entity715 morphology. In the current study, the ultrastructure of platelets and fibrin networks was investigated to determine whether any morphological changes are present in these structures in @entity1 suffering from @entity309 . Six @entity1 diagnosed with @entity309 took part in this study, and their clot morphology was compared to that of control subjects. Citrated blood with and without the addition of @entity556 was used. Results indicated that the fibrin networks in the @entity625 @entity1 formed thick, matted layers. This matted appearance is due to a changed ultrastructure of the minor, thin fibers. Also, in these @entity1 , spontaneous networks were created without the addition of @entity556 , which indicates an abnormal hemostatic protein functioning, and the latter is expressed as visible changes in ultrastructure.
