    Significant association of anti-platelet factor 4/heparin antibody with cardiovascular disease in hemodialysis patients: a longitudinal 7-year study

    Hemodialysis patients have a high incidence of anti-platelet factor 4/heparin antibody (PF4-H Ab) and are at a high risk of cardiovascular disease. This study determines the association between PF4-H Ab and ca...

    Anti-PF4/heparin antibodies are associated with arteriovenous fistula thrombosis in non-diabetic hemodialysis patients

    Anti-platelet factor 4/heparin complex antibodies (anti-PF4/heparin Ab) have been found to cause heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), a clinical syndrome thrombocytopenia and thrombosis. There is still cont...
