EP 3 321 373 B1 Printed by Jouve, 75001 PARIS (FR) EP 3 321 373 B1 Description Background of the Invention 5 [0001] The invention features methods for monitoring rheological changes in an aqueous sample. [0002] Blood is the circulating tissue of an organism that carries oxygen and nutritive materials to the tissues and removes carbon dioxide and various metabolic products for excretion. Whole blood consists of a pale yellow or gray yellow fluid, plasma, in which are suspended red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. [0003] An accurate measurement of hemostasis, i.e., the ability of a patient’s blood to coagulate and dissolve, in a 10 timely and effective fashion is crucial to certain surgical and medical procedures. Accelerated (rapid) and accurate detection of abnormal hemostasis is also of particular importance in respect of appropriate treatment to be given to patients suffering from hemostasis disorders and to whom it may be necessary to administer anti-coagulants, antifibri- nolytic agents, thrombolytic agents, anti-platelet agents, or blood components in a quantity which must clearly be de- termined after taking into account the abnormal components, cells or "factors" of the patient’s blood which may be 15 contributing to the hemostasis disorder. [0004] Hemostasis is a dynamic, extremely complex process involving many interacting factors, which include coag- ulation and fibrinolytic proteins, activators, inhibitors and cellular elements, such as platelet cytoskeleton, platelet cyto- plasmic granules and platelet cell surfaces. As a result, during activation, no factor remains static or works in isolation. Thus, to be complete, it is necessary to measure continuously all phases of patient hemostasis as a net product of whole 20 blood components in a non-isolated, or static fashion. To give an example of the consequences of the measuring of an isolated part of hemostasis, assume that a patient developed fibrinolysis, which is caused by the activation of plasminogen into plasmin, an enzyme that breaks down the clot. In this scenario, a byproduct of this process of fibrinogen degrading product behaves as an anticoagulant. If the patient is tested only for anticoagulation and is treated accordingly, this patient may remain at risk due to not being treated with antifibrinolytic agents. 25 [0005] The end result of the hemostasis process is a three-dimensional network of polymerized fibrinogen fibers (i.e., fibrin), which together with platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa) receptor bonding forms the final clot. A unique property of this network structure is that it behaves as a rigid elastic solid, capable of resisting deforming shear stress of the circulating blood. The strength of the final clot to resist deforming shear stress is determined, in part, by the forces exerted by the participating platelets. 30 [0006] Platelets have been shown to affect the mechanical strength of fibrin in at least two ways. First, by acting as node branching points, they significantly enhance fibrin structure rigidity. Secondly, by exerting a "tugging" force on fibers, by the contractility of platelet actomyosin, a muscle protein that is a part of a cytoskeleton-mediated contractibility apparatus. The force of this contractility further enhances the strength of the fibrin structure. The platelet receptor GPIIb/IIIa appears crucial in anchoring polymerizing fibers to the underlying cytoskeleton contractile apparatus in acti- 35 vated platelets, thereby mediating the transfer of mechanical force. [0007] Thus, the clot that develops and adheres to the damaged vascular system as a result of activated hemostasis and resists the deforming shear stress of the circulating blood is, in essence a mechanical device, formed to provide a "temporary stopper," that resists the shear force of circulating blood during vascular recovery. The kinetics, strength, and stability of the clot, that is its physical property to resist the deforming shear force of the circulating blood, determine 40 its capacity to do the work of hemostasis, which is to stop hemorrhage without permitting inappropriate thrombosis. [0008] Platelets play a critical role in mediating ischemic complications in prothrombotic (thrombophilic) patients. The use of GPIIb/IIIa inhibitor agents in thrombophilic patients or as an adjunct to percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is rapidly becoming the standard of care. Inhibition of the GPIIb/IIIa receptor is an extremely potent form of antiplatelet therapy that can result in reduction of risk of death and myocardial infarction, but can also result in a dramatic risk of 45 hemorrhage. The reason for the potential of bleeding or non-attainment of adequate therapeutic level of platelet inhibition is the weight-adjusted platelet blocker treatment algorithm that is used in spite of the fact that there is considerable person-to-person variability. This is an issue in part due to differences in platelet count and variability in the number of GPIIb/IIIa receptors per platelet and their ligand binding functions. To be clinically useful, an assay of platelet inhibition must provide rapid and reliable information regarding receptor blockade at the bedside thereby permitting dose modifi- 50 cation to achieve the desired anti-platelet effect. [0009] There is a need for a method and apparatus for rapid, reliable, quantitative, point-of-care test for monitoring therapeutic platelet blockade, and for measuring the efficacy of anti-platelet agents, continuously and over the entire hemostasis process from initial clot formation through lysis. 55 Summary of the Invention [0010] The invention is as defined by the appended claims. [0011] It is described a method of monitoring a rheological change in an aqueous sample by: (i) measuring a signal 2 EP 3 321 373 B1 characteristic of the NMR relaxation rate of water in the sample to produce NMR relaxation data; (ii) determining from the NMR relaxation data a magnetic resonance parameter value or set of values being characteristic of the rheological change in the sample; and (iii) comparing the result of step (ii) to a predetermined threshold value. [0012] In a related aspect, it is described a method of monitoring a rheological change in an aqueous sample including: 5 (i) making a series of magnetic resonance relaxation rate measurements of water in the sample; (ii) transforming the measurements using an algorithm that distinguishes two or more observable water populations within the sample, wherein each observable water population has a distinct relaxation rate and a distinct signal intensity at one or more time points during the rheological change; and (iii) on the basis of the relaxation rate or signal intensity for at least one of the two or more observable water populations, monitoring the rheological change in the sample. 10 [0013] It is described a method of monitoring a rheological change in an aqueous sample including: (i) making a series of measurements of water in the sample, wherein the measurements distinguish two or more observable water populations within the sample, and each observable water population has a distinct signal and/or signal intensity at one or more time points during the rheological change; and (ii) on the basis of the signal and/or signal intensity observed for at least one of the two or more observable water populations, monitoring the rheological change in the sample.

  • Choice of Drugs in the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis
    RHEUMATOLOGY IN GENERAL PRACTICE 7 Those with predominant but never exclusive involvement of the terminal finger joint, usually associated with changes in the nail of the same finger; they are serologically negative. There may be a swollen finger with loss of the skin markings-a sort of dactylitis, again serologically negative. (2) Those with a much more severe process which produces loss of movement in the spine and changes in the sacroiliac joints much the same as those in ankylosing spondylitis; unlike ankylosing spondylitis, it produces severe deformity often with ankylosis in peripheral joints. Many of the finger joints become deformed and ankylosed. (3) Those cases indistinguishable from rheumatoid arthritis although the majority are sero-negative. The Stevens Johnson syndrome produces acute effusions, particularly in large joints. It is sometimes associated with the rash of erythema multiforme, always with ulceration in the mouth and genital tract; the mouth ulcers are accompanied by sloughing, unlike those of Beh9et's syndrome which we come to next. BehCet's syndrome, originally described as a combination of orogenital ulceration with relapsing iritis, is now expanded to include skin lesions, other eye lesions, lesions of the central nervous system, thrombophlebitis migrans, and arthropathy (occurring in 64 per cent). The onset is acute, often affecting only a single joint and settling without residual trouble. Choice of drugs in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis Dr Dudley Hart, M.D., F.R.C.P.

  • CHAPTER 1 General Introduction
    CHAPTER 1 General Introduction Chapter 1 1.1 General Introduction Drugs are defined as chemical substances that are used to prevent or cure diseases in humans and animals. Drugs can also act as poisons if taken in excess. For example paracetamol overdose causes coma and death. Apart from the curative effect of drugs, most of them have several unwanted biological effects known as side effects. Aspirin which is commonly used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains, as an antipyretic to reduce fever and as an anti-inflammatory medication, may also cause gastric irritation and bleeding. Also many drugs, such as antibiotics, when over used develop resistance to the patients, microorganisms and virus which are intended to control by drug. Resistance occurs when a drug is no longer effective in controlling a medical condition.1 Thus, new drugs are constantly required to surmount drug resistance, for the improvement in the treatment of existing diseases, the treatment of newly identified disease, minimise the adverse side effects of existing drugs etc. Drugs are classified in number of different ways depending upon their mode of action such as antithrombotic drugs, analgesic, antianxiety, diuretics, antidepressant and antibiotics etc.2 Antithrombotic drugs are one of the most important classes of drugs which can be shortly defined as ―drugs that reduce the formation of blood clots‖. The blood coagulation, also known as haemostasis is a physiological process in which body prevents blood loss by forming stable clot at the site of injury. Clot formation is a coordinated interplay of two fundamental processes, aggregation of platelets and formation of fibrin.
