Coagulant & AntiCoagulant Haemostasis (arrest of blood loss) and blood coagulation involve complex interaction between the injury vessel wall, platelets and coagulation factors
A detailed description of various stages in blood coagulation, clotting factors involved, the role of calcium, vitamin K, thrombin, phospholipids in blood coagulation, various tests for blood clotting, the significance of bleeding disorders in the treatment of periodontal disease and management.
Hemostasis is the mechanism that leads to cessation of bleeding from a blood vessel. It is a process that involves multiple interlinked steps. This cascade culminates into the formation of a “plug” that closes up the damaged site of the blood vessel controlling the bleeding.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

2. Coagulation Cascade
Choose one or more of the following;
1. If I could memorize all of “CDs”, why can’t I
remember the blasted coagulation cascade?
2. O.K., so I figured out Factors I, II, V, VII,
VIII, IX, X, XI, and XII. So where the hell is
factor III, IV, and VI?
3. And why do they use Roman Numerals? I
can’t read my damned notes!
4. Who cares about this stuff anyway, I’m going
into oncology!

3. Hemostasis
Hemostasis; “The processes of keeping the blood
liquid in the vasculature”
– Prevention of hemorrhage following vascular injury.
– Prevention of excessive clotting (thrombosis) in the vasculature.
Primary Hemostasis;
– Vascular forces (vasoconstriction) and platelet plug
Secondary Hemostasis;
– The coagulation factors
Physiologic Anticoagulation processes
– Neutralize activated factors where vessels are intact.
– Fibrinolysis

12. Coagulation Cascade
General Features
Clotting factors (Factor II, VII, etc.) are zymogens
(or proenzymes), which are activated to an active
enzyme by limited proteolysis.
– The enzymes in the coagulation system are serine
proteinases. (Serine, Aspartic acid, Histidine amino acids in
catalytic domain)
Cofactors of Cascade
– Factors V and VIII
The system is a “cascade”, i.e. waterfall.
– One activated molecule activates multiple at subsequent
stages.
– The product of one step is an enzyme for the next step.
12
13. Coagulation System Is Best Understood As
Series of Membrane-Bound Complexes:
Enzyme/Cofactor/Substrate
(Modified from Furie B, Furie BC: The molecular basis of blood coagulation.
Cell 53:505, 1988.) in Hoffman’s Hematology Text.
13
14. Tissue Factor;
Initiation of Coagulation Cascade
Primary process, in vivo, is the extrinsic pathway.
Tissue factor can be expressed by monocytes,
fibroblasts, smooth muscle, endothelial cells.
Tissue Factor is released in the vessel wall,
following exposure to endotoxin, inflammation,
injury.
Tissue Factor binds/activates Factor VII
TF:VIIa complex binds and activates Factor
IX to IXa (and to a minor degree X to Xa).

28. Role of Factor XI
Factor XI is component of a positive feedback loop,
Thrombin activates Factor XI (along with V, VIII,
and XIII), which generates more thrombin.
Results in augmentation of fibrin generation.

clinically relevant than XII, Prekallikrein, High
Molecular Weight Kininogen.

29. VITAMIN K DEPENDENT
CARBOXYLASE
Post-translational

residues to γ-carboxyglutamic acid
Confers calcium binding and lipid
binding on these proteins.

32. Vitamin K-Dependent Factors
Factors II (Prothrombin), VII, IX, X
Protein C, Protein S
All are enzymes, except protein S.
-Carboxylation of Glutamic Acid allows
for binding to calcium, and complex
formation.
While both procoagulants and
anticoagulants are affected, the net effect of
vitamin K deficiency or antagonism is
anticoagulation.
32
35. Heparan:Antithrombin III
Deficiency first described in 1965.
– (Egeberg O. Inherited antithrombin III deficiency causing
thrombophilia. Thromb Diath Haemorrh 13:516-30, 1965)
AT III neutralizes the active enzymes in the coagulation
system.
Dominant Inheritance.
35
36. Antithrombin III
Antithrombin III (Antithrombin)
When heparan sulfate (on endothelial cells) or
heparin (mast cells, pharmaceutical) binds to AT
III, the AT III undergoes a conformational change
and binds to the active enzymes of the clotting
cascade.
Thrombin (IIa), IXa, Xa, XIa are inhibited by
Heparin/Heparan:ATIII.
– Factor VIIa is resistant to AT III.
36
37. Protein C/Protein S System
Constituents;
–

Thrombomodulin
Endothelial cell protein C receptor
(EPCR
Activated Protein C (With
cofactor Protein S) inactivates

the cascade
– (Probable role in augmenting
fibrinolysis.)
EPCR localizes Protein C/Ca to
endothelial cell surface.
– May have role in sepsis.
37
38. Fibrinolytic Pathway
Plasminogen;
– Activated to Plasmin (a serine proteinase)
– Plasmin proteolyzes fibrin and fibrinogen
Plasminogen Activators;
– t-PA (Tissue-Plasminogen Activator)
• Localizes to fibrin clot
– u-PA (Urokinase-Plasminogen Activator)
• Localizes to cell membrane uPA receptor.
– Released by endothelial cells.
Inhibitors/Serpins
– PAI-1, PAI-2; Plasminogen Activator Inhibitors
– 2-Antiplasmin.
