Do hypoxia and the anticoagulants dalteparin and acetylsalicylic acid affect human placental amino acid transport?
Our data underline the dependency of placental function on oxygen supply. LMWHs and ASA are not able to reverse the effects of hypoxia on placental amino acid transport. These findings and the uncovering of the signalling mechanisms in more detail will help to understand the impact of LMWHs and ASA on placental function and fetal growth.
Both treatments are effective emergency procedures for bleeding esophagogastric varices. Our simplified Sugiura procedure is an effective treatment for bleeding esophagogastric varices and requires a shorter operating time than the Modified Sugiura procedure.
