Incidence and clinical progression of asymptomatic peripherally inserted central catheter < em > - < /em > related thrombosis in solid neoplasm patients: ultrasound insights from a prospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: The majority of CRT present asymptomatically within the first 30 days of venous catheter insertion in patients with solid neoplasms. Ultrasound follow-up is valuable for detecting asymptomatic CRT. The risk of CRT was lower with PICC-PORT than with PICC. Additionally, the risk of CRT was found to be higher in patients with high-risk thromboembolic neoplasms. It is crucial for larger studies to confirm the utility of treating asymptomatic thromboses and isolated superficial thrombosis.PMID:38660454 | PMC:PMC11039392 | DOI:10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102391 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)

Tachyphylaxis and reproducibility of desmopressin response in perioperative persons with nonsevere hemophilia A: implications for clinical practice
CONCLUSION: Tachyphylaxis in the surgical setting was considerably more pronounced than previously reported, with FVIII:C at D1 and D2 of 36% to 43% of the initial response. Our results may have important implications for monitoring repeated desmopressin treatment when used perioperatively.PMID:38660455 | PMC:PMC11039391 | DOI:10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102367 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)

Cancer and arterial thrombosis: therapeutic options
Res Pract Thromb Haemost. 2024 Mar 27;8(3):102393. doi: 10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102393. eCollection 2024 Mar.ABSTRACTA State of the Art lecture titled "Cancer and Arterial Thrombosis: Therapeutic Options" was presented at the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Congress in 2023. This State of the Art review delves into the complex relationship between cancer and arterial thromboembolism (ATE), encompassing acute coronary syndrome, ischemic strokes, and peripheral arterial disease. The burden of cancer-associated ATE is not well defined, but studies indicate elevated risks, particularly in the 6 months after a c...

A machine learning approach to predict mortality due to immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
CONCLUSION: The USTMA Mortality Index was acceptable for predicting mortality due to acute iTTP in the USTMA registry, but not sensitive enough to rule out death. Identifying patients at high risk of iTTP-related mortality may help individualize care and ultimately improve iTTP survival outcomes. Further studies are needed to provide external validation. Our model is one of many recent examples where machine learning models may show promise in clinical prediction tools in healthcare.PMID:38651093 | PMC:PMC11033197 | DOI:10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102388 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)

Multi-phased kinetics and interaction of protein kinase signaling in glycoprotein VI-induced platelet αIIbβ3 integrin activation and degranulation
CONCLUSION: Kinetic analysis of GPVI-initiated multisite protein phosphorylation in human platelets demonstrates multiple phases and interactions of tyrosine and serine/threonine kinases with activation-altering feedforward and feedback loops partly involving PKC. The protein kinase inhibitor effects on multisite protein phosphorylation and functional readouts reveal that the signaling network of Syk, Btk and PKC controls platelet granule exocytosis and αIIbβ3 integrin activation.PMID:38653482 | DOI:10.1055/a-2311-0117 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)

Management of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding on Anticoagulation: The Patient-Clinician Perspective
J Thromb Haemost. 2024 Apr 18:S1538-7836(24)00216-2. doi: 10.1016/j.jtha.2024.04.002. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBleeding is a well-recognized side effect of anticoagulant therapy, which is used to treat venous thromboembolism (VTE) in individuals of all ages, including those of female sex, who commonly experience VTE as a complication of hormonal therapies and/or pregnancy. Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is also extremely common in reproductive aged individuals of female sex. Despite these overlapping situations, relatively little attention has been paid to the impact of anticoagulant-associated HMB on treatment strate...
