Incidence of Thromboembolic Complications Following Kidney Transplantation with Short and Extended Aspirin Prophylaxis: A Retrospective Single-Center Study
CONCLUSIONS Extended-duration aspirin use did not significantly reduce the incidence of VTE in the first 6 weeks following kidney transplantation. An association was identified between anti-human thymocyte immunoglobulin and VTE, which requires further assessment.PMID:37309097 | DOI:10.12659/AOT.939143

Center-Level Variation in Failure to Rescue Following Elective Adult Cardiac Surgery
CONCLUSIONS: The present findings affirm prior work demonstrating a close link between variation in FTR and mortality, but not complications. Further study is necessary to delineate modifiable care pathways that mitigate FTR.PMID:37031769 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2023.03.034

Wide-ranging clinical spectrum of paradoxical embolism
The purpose of this review is to raise the index of suspicion for paradoxical embolism among generalists. The review is based solely on anecdotal reports compiled from EMBASE, MEDLINE, Googlescholar and Pubmed. Search terms were ‘paradoxical embolism’, ‘pulmonary embolism’ and ‘pulmonary arteriovenous malformations’. What emerged was that right-to-left paradoxical embolism could occur with or without concurrent pulmonary embolism, and also with and without proof of the presence of an ‘embolus-in-transit’. Potential sites of single or multiple systemic involvement included the...

A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Apixaban to the Vitamin K-antagonist Phenprocoumon in Patients on Chronic Hemodialysis: The AXADIA-AFNET 8 study
Conclusions: In this randomized trial comparing apixaban and VKA in patients with AF on hemodialysis with long follow-up, no differences were observed in safety or efficacy outcomes. Even on oral anticoagulation, patients with AF on hemodialysis remain at high risk of cardiovascular events. Larger randomized trials are needed to determine the optimal anticoagulation regimen for patients with AF on hemodialysis. Clinical Trial Registration: EudraCT No. 2015-005503-84, NCT02933697.PMID:36335915 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062779

A Tool to Estimate Risk of 30-day Mortality and Complications After Hip Fracture Surgery: Accurate Enough for Some but Not All Purposes? A Study From the ACS-NSQIP Database
CONCLUSION: The models of mortality and complications we developed may be accurate enough for some uses, especially personalizing informed consent and shared decision-making with patient-specific risk estimates. However, the high false discovery rate suggests the models should not be used to restrict access to surgery for high-risk patients. Deciding which measures of accuracy to prioritize and what is "accurate enough" depends on the clinical question and use of the predictions. Discrimination and calibration are commonly used measures of overall model accuracy but may be poorly suited to certain clinical questions and ap...
