Warfarin Institute of America Dedicated To Your Health INFORMATION ABOUT ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID ANTIBODY (HUGHES) SYNDROME People who have this syndrome are highly susceptible to blood clots. These may occur in almost any location from the legs to the lungs to the brain. Therefore, they are treated with anticoagulants - usually warfarin. The people with this condition experience unpredictable fluctuations in their INR test results. In other conditions for which people take warfarin, this can almost always be traced to unreliable dosing, adding or subtracting interacting medications, eating habits etc. However, APL Syndrome people are very conscious of their medical condition and have generally ruled-out these causes for the fluctuating INRs. This leaves us with the conclusion that it must be something in their blood that causes the test to be inaccurate. Since this has only been a recognized medical condition for about the past twenty years, there are few long-term, outcomes studies. Recently the problem of why the INR does not give good results has captured the interest of researchers such as Dr. Maureane Hoffman. This has led to going "back to the basics" such as rethinking the entire mechanism of how blood clots. The clotting problem is so serious in APL that some authorities in the coagulation field have concluded that warfarin is not a very effective drug in this condition. However, in the US at least, it is about the only oral choice available. The alternative choices are the injections unfractionated heparin (UF) and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH). UF is even harder to control than warfarin. LMWH is easier to control but costs in excess of USD 50.00 per day. They also often leave unrelenting bruises giving rise to the term "eggplant belly" to describe the portion of the body where they are injected.

Lupus and Associated Conditions Back to Lupus Information Hughes' syndrome (antiphospholipid syndrome) This is often called “sticky blood” in that the patients have a tendency to clots both in the veins and arteries. The thrombosis may present either dramatically or over a period of time with clots in major vessels, even including the brain. It is vital that this diagnosis is made (a simple blood test for antiphospholipid antibodies is available in most major hospitals). Pregnant women who have antiphospholipid antibodies have a tendency to clot the placenta and develop recurrent miscarriages and these can be prevented by diagnosis and treatment. Although this syndrome was first discovered in lupus patients it is now recognised that many, if not the majority, of patients with Hughes’ syndrome have no other features of lupus nor will they develop lupus in the future.

Atkins Dietmania The King and I: 28th - 30th January 2004 From the 28th - 30th January 2004 audiences in the Greenwood Lecture Theatre were transported to the grand Royal court of 19th century Siam, as the "King and I" was performed by members of the GKT Musical Theatre Society. The week was a great success, the production making audience members laugh and cry. "The King and I" was adapted for the stage by Rodgers and Hammerstein, from the Margaret Landon book "Anna and the King of Siam". It tells the story of Anna Leowens (Natalie Watson), an English schoolteacher appointed to bring Western culture to Siam by its King (Sam Turner). However, on her arrival, the King and Anna get off to a bad start. Throughout the play, with its many twists and turns, Anna begins to understand the King more, and to love him and his large family. On his deathbed, the King and Anna are reconciled and the King is succeeded by a son who will lead Siam using the important lessons Anna taught him.

The syndrome links immunology with thrombosis and vascular disease. Since it is such a common syndrome why has there not been more diagnosis of it? "They were always there-in lupus clinics, in migraine clinics, in anticoagulant clinics with strokes, with multiple sclerosis, and with a gamut of vascular problems." The 83 contributors have provided an extensive collection of well-documented articles that cover many aspects of the syndrome. Much more needs to be written and researched since "physicians can neither prevent the syndrome nor predict the occurrence of thrombosis." This is a highly recommended book for all those who are doing research on autoimmune diseases and should be available in all health science libraries. Previous E-STREAMS Vol. 6, No. 3 Index

Kay Thackray Order Form Search this site Site map What's new The description by Graham Hughes of the "antiphospholipid syndrome" or Hughes Syndrome is one of the medical landmarks of the 20th century. Here is a disease, a medical discovery, which should turn such fashions around. In a series of brilliant clinical observations, Dr Hughes, not only pieced together what is now clearly a common and important disease, but also, with his team, set up the blood tests and treatment guidelines, which are used world-wide. This was not an anecdotal observation. It was a prime example of meticulous clinical observation and dogged determination. Hughes Syndrome is now recognised as a major new disease. It has been described, by Dr Josep Font of Barcelona as, "one of the 2 new diseases (with AIDS) of the 20th century". Despite being 20 years old, and being of major importance in the diagnosis of strokes, migraine, multiple sclerosis, and miscarriage, the syndrome is still under diagnosed by doctors. This book by Kay Thackray is an important contribution to the understanding of the syndrome.

The antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is sometimes called 'sticky blood syndrome'. This is because people with it have an increased tendency to form clots in blood vessels (also known as thromboses). Any blood vessel can be affected including the veins, which are thin walled and take blood towards the heart, and the arteries, which have thick muscular walls, and take blood away from the heart. As a result of this clotting tendency these patients may develop repeated clots, eg in the veins of the leg (deep vein thrombosis), or in the arteries supplying the brain, causing a stroke. In pregnancy, the placenta can be affected by small clots, and there is an increased risk of miscarriage, particularly in mid-pregnancy.

(Full references have been omitted and the reader should refer to the above journal or to Stockton Press Introduction In 1983 we described a complex clinical syndrome, characterised by thrombosis, recurrent abortion, neurological disease and anti-phospholipid antibodies. In the 1983 "Prosser-White Oration" to the British Society of Dermatology, the following passages still seem clinically appropriate 15 years later: "Although many of these patients fall under the general heading of lupus, or lupus-like disease, I believe that the group is sufficiently homogenous and in some ways (such as the frequently negative ANA serology) sufficiently different from typical systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to warrant separate consideration. the manifestations of this syndrome are thrombosis (often multiple) and frequently, spontaneous abortions (often multiple), neurological disease, thrombocytopenia and livedo reticularis. The livedo reticularis is often florid on the knees. This may or may not be associated with mild to moderate Raynaud's phenomenon. These patients' blood pressures often fluctuate, apparently correlating with the severity of the livedo, suggesting a possible reno-vascular aetiology. However, this group of patients rarely has primary renal disease.

home subscribe about us books ... feedback Counter Punch November 1, 2002 Johnny Gulf War Syndrome? Chemical Weapons and Homicidal Mania by WILLIAM HUGHES O n Oct. 28, 2002, Robert Flores Jr., flunking out at the U. of Arizona Nursing School, shot and killed three of his professors, then killed himself. He had also threatened to blow up a school building. He had no prior criminal record. His fellow students had described him as acting "very rude and obnoxious." He was a Gulf War veteran. During a two week period in October, 2002, John Allen Williams, a/k/a John Allen Muhammad, allegedly went on a wild killing spree that left ten innocent victims dead, while terrorizing the nation's capital and its environs. A former intimate friend, who had known him in the 90s back in Washington state, said "John, to me, was a regular guy." Before leaving that state for the East coast, associates had noticed, however, a sharp change for the worse in his personality. He had become more "belligerent." Like Flores, he had no prior criminal record. Muhammad, too, had served honorably in the Gulf War theater. Timothy McVeigh admitted setting the bomb in the Oklahoma federal building, that killed 168, including 19 children, and injured 500 others, on April 19, 1995. He was executed for that mad, cowardly crime. Like Flores and Muhammad, he had a clean criminal record before going off the proverbial deep end. In fact, he had been described as a "very shy guy, who liked to drive old beat up cars." He was a registered Republican, too. McVeigh had also served his country in the Gulf War. In fact, he'd held the rank of sergeant and had received the Bronze Star decoration.
