Low molecular weight heparin is associated with less thrombocytopenia than the normal heparin. Low molecular heparin also prevent unnecessary bleeding since it is not as strong as the normal heparin. Low molecular weight heparin are derived from smaller polysaccharide chain and their effect is more predictable than the normally unfractionated heparin. It also help treat deep venous thrombosis, which is commonly associated with prolonged sitting and standing. It is also used to treat pulmonary embolism especially the more massive one. However, care must be observe in using it since some patients elicit allergic responses to it.

What is the result of eutrophication?
sergejj [24]
First answer is correct. Eutrophication can have serious effects, like algal blooms that block light from getting into the water and harm the plants and animals that need it. If there's enough overgrowth of algae, it can prevent oxygen from getting into the water, making it hypoxic and creating a dead zone where no organisms can survive.
