Recent studies suggest that vitamin C can significantly improve erythrocyte preservation by mitigating oxidative damage during storage, thereby maintaining cell membrane integrity and functionality. This preservation is crucial for ensuring the efficacy and safety of transfused blood, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. In addition to its role in erythrocyte preservation, vitamin C has been shown to modulate immune responses, which can be particularly beneficial in reducing the risks associated with transfusion-related immunomodulation (TRIM). By influencing both innate and adaptive immunity, vitamin C can help mitigate adverse immune reactions and improve the overall clinical outcomes for transfusion recipients. These immune-modulating properties underscore the potential of vitamin C to address some of the critical challenges in transfusion medicine. Furthermore, clinical trials have demonstrated that the incorporation of vitamin C in transfusion protocols can lead to enhanced recovery rates and reduced incidence of transfusion-related complications. The multifaceted benefits of vitamin C, including its antioxidant defense, immune support, and metabolic regulation, highlight its promise as a transformative agent in blood transfusion practices. As research continues to uncover the optimal use of vitamin C in this context, it is poised to become a pivotal element in improving transfusion efficacy and patient care.</p>","PeriodicalId":8025,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medicine and Surgery","volume":"87 6","pages":"3310-3326"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12140693/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144246068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The interplay between stress and hemostasis involves intricate mechanisms where stress hormones like cortisol, adrenaline, and noradrenaline interact with coagulation factors and platelets, promoting a hypercoagulable state. This review delves into the various pathways through which stress influences hemostasis, highlighting the critical roles of the sympathetic nervous system, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, and inflammatory mediators. Psychological stress, arising from anxiety, depression, and acute mental stress, has been shown to elevate levels of coagulation factors such as fibrinogen and D-dimer, increasing the risk of thrombotic events. Similarly, physical stress from intense exercise or trauma enhances platelet reactivity and the expression of procoagulant factors. The body's response to severe physical stress, such as trauma or burns, can overwhelm the hemostatic system, leading to conditions like disseminated intravascular coagulation, characterized by widespread clotting and subsequent bleeding. The health implications of stress-induced hemostatic changes are significant, particularly concerning cardiovascular diseases. Chronic stress contributes to persistent hypercoagulability, elevating the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Acute stress episodes can precipitate acute coronary syndromes, especially in individuals with preexisting conditions like hypertension or diabetes.</p>","PeriodicalId":8025,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medicine and Surgery","volume":"87 6","pages":"3300-3309"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12140743/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144245994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
