Joep Schellens: Influence of Dexamethasone and Tocilizumab on Fibrinolysis in COVID-19
Joep Schellens, PhD-student at Maastricht UMC+, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in Thrombosis Research, adding:
”I’m excited to share my article, ‘Inhibition of inflammation reduces hypofibrinolysis in severe COVID-19: A nested case-control study within the Maastricht cohort’, has been published in Thrombosis Research.
This publication outlines the influence of dexamethasone and tocilizumab treatment on coagulation and fibrinolysis in COVID-19 ICU patients.
Many thanks to my co-authors for their valuable contributions to this work!”
