Ticlopidine induced TTP has been highly associated with autoimmune induced reduction in ADAMTS-13 activity. These findings, to a lesser extent, have also been found in clopidogrel induced TTP. We report a case of clopidogrel associated TTP in a patient that presented with acute stroke, renal failure, and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction.展开更多

These rocks have been extensively metamorphosed and altered to serpentinite. The komatiite nature of ultramafics is conspicuous. In most of the areas of the belt these ultramafics are massive in nature. However, some of the ultramafic units show layered nature. But, their outcrops are encompassed within the massive komatiitic bodies. These komatiitic ultramafics are predominantly Mg-rich in nature. The layered rocks are also Mg-rich, and their field setting and geochemistry suggest their intermittent occurrence as sills, during the differentiation of peridotitic magma. The layered rocks, which have been intensely serpentinisation show homogenous nature. They are almost wholly made of serpentine with occasional relics of pyroxene. Secondary carbonate mineral is often noticed. Their higher MgO content indicates Mg-rich ultramafic magmatism during Archaean orogeny.展开更多

The layered sill in the schist belt is a linear patch of ultramafic sequences (peridotite and pyroxenite) with metamorphogenic magnetite mineralization. The metamorphogenic magnetite appears as interbands in layered sequences and as veins in serpentinite. The present study focuses on understanding the characteristics of metamorphogenic magnetite by petrographic and EPMA analysis. The study found that the precursor chromite grains are transformed into Cr-magnetite and magnetite in the spinel transformation system due to metamorphism and hydrothermal alteration. The Cr, Mg, Al, and Ni are depleted during transformation, and Fe is enriched. The Cr-magnetite appears homogenous in the vein due to serpentinization, indicating prograde greenschist to amphibolite facies metamorphism, and the area has suffered an episodic metamorphic process. The results of Cr-magnetite cation proportions of Cr fall within ishkulite variety data range of 0.10 - 0.50 apfu (atoms per formula unit). Cr-magnetite variety Ishkulite represents an additional miscibility gap in the Cr-Fe3+ transformation series other than ferrite chromite and chrome magnetite. The transformation process primarily involves the oxidation of chromium and the reduction of iron. The oxidation of chromite by highly oxidizing fluids with increasing pressure and temperature alters to Cr-magnetite, where chromium in the +3 state oxidizes to the +6 state, forming soluble chromate ions and diffusing with Fe3+. Then, it transforms into magnetite due to reducing conditions. Cr-magnetite vein indicates the potential for chromite deposits in the area, and hydrothermal altered magnetites could be a source for hosting valuable precious metals like gold and PGEs. Further investigations are needed to assess the mineralization potential and its extent.展开更多
