What are the hormones fertility? When do I need to check? When is the right time to check? What's the point of each one? 1. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) It is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the pituitary gland, and its physiological role is mainly to promote the development and maturation of follicles and secrete estrogen. 2. Luteinizing hormone (LH) It is a glycoprotein hormon...
Platelet activation plays a crucial role in primary hemostasis, which is the initial step in the physiological repair mechanism to prevent further bleeding when blood vessel walls are damaged. Platelet activation involves three processes: platelet adhesion, aggregation, and secretion. These processes lead to the formation of a platelet plug at the site of vessel injury, which is essential for prim...
Thyroid function abnormalities primarily encompass two conditions: Hypothyroidism (commonly referred to as "hypothyroid") and Hyperthyroidism (commonly referred to as "hyperthyroid"). Thyroid function testing plays a vital role in early detection of thyroid diseases and is one of the essential components of a health-up. Thyroid function abnormalities can give rise to various health issues. ...
After understanding platelet activation function, this article will now introduce the clinical significance of platelet activation. Normal platelet activation and aggregation are necessary defense mechanisms that help with hemostasis and repair of damaged blood vessels. However, excessive activation can lead to thrombotic disorders. Modern clinical research has shown that many diseases, especially...
Coagulation Function vs. Platelet Function Coagulation function and platelet function are both related to blood clotting and hemostasis, but they operate through different mechanisms. In normal circumstances, the body maintains a dynamic balance between the coagulation and anticoagulation systems, which is crucial for preventing abnormal bleeding or thrombus formation. Imbalances in this equilibri...
September 13, 2024 is the 13th World Sepsis Day, and since the first World Spesis Day (WSD) was established in 2012, the global healthcare community and the public have been raising awareness of this serious and life-threatening disease year by year. On this day, we once again focused on sepsis, aiming to further raise public awareness of sepsis through scientific education and other activities, r...
1. New progress in luminescence: The number of manufacturers is gradually increasing The addition of new brands is bound to accelerate the clinical acceptance of luminescence detection cytokines. Differentiation began to emerge in the items From the perspective of the manufacturers that have been certified so far, the main items cover IL-1β, IL-2, IL-2R, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TN...
Cluster of Differentiation (CD Markers), as small proteins secreted by immune cells, play a key role in maintaining immune system stability and regulating pathological processes. It has a wide range of clinical applications, including auxiliary diagnosis, prognosis assessment, identification of infectious sources, early warning of cytokine storms, and monitoring of tumor immunity. In addition, the...
