“…In some cases, the potential addition of platelet/VWF thrombi due to an acquired ADAMTS13 functional deficiency and leading to so-called TMA-like lesions is highly suspected in clinical arguments [41-43] but still remains debated in terms of prognosis and pathophysiology. Furthermore, in most studies published so far, the subtle combination of DIC and TMA-like lesions has been difficult to establish because of the great heterogeneity of the sepsis cohorts tested, involving mixed cases within the categories of systemic inflammation, sepsis, septic shock, and sepsis-related multiple organ failure [20-26], some of them complicated by DIC and others not. In the current study, we focused on a cohort of 72 patients with septic shock prospectively enrolled from a single ICU in order to respond to two objectives: first, to analyze the interaction between DIC and ADAMTS13 and its impact on prognosis, and second, to elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms for ADAMTS13 deficiency.…”

“…Some cases of ADAMTS13 deficiency have been reported recently in adult patients with sepsis-induced DIC and this ADAMTS13 deficiency was associated with acute renal failure [20]. Later clinical studies, also in adults and focusing on sepsis without DIC [21-25] or isolated DIC not specifically related to sepsis [26], reported decreased ADAMTS13 activity. Interestingly, some of these studies [20,21,25,26] showed that partially decreased ADAMTS13 activity was associated with outcome.…”

“…Elevated plasma vWF antigen (vWF: Ag) and/or decreased ADAMTS 13 activity are associated with negative outcomes of several disorders [11]. An imbalance between the circulating levels of vWF and ADAMTS 13 has been reported in a number of acquired diseases in adults such as coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction, peripheral arterial disease, ischemic stroke, preeclampsia, inflammatory bowel disease, and liver cirrhosis [12,13] and these findings have been reported also in different diseases of pediatric age such as type 1 diabetes mellitus [14] and ESRD [15].…”

“…DIC: Decreased ADAMTS13 and elevated VWFpp have been reported in patients with DIC [57] and TMA [13], suggesting that ADAMTS13 is also consumed through the continuing cleavage of VWF or from the low production of ADAMTS13 in DIC patients. Although DIC and TMA are different diseases, they display similar hemostatic abnormalities to patients with LDLT.…”
