Hyperhomocysteinemia in cardiovascular diseases: revisiting observational studies and clinical trials
In conclusion, revisiting observational studies and clinical trials suggests that cardiovascular patients should be screened for hyperhomocysteinemia, when no other risk factor is found.

Further trials are needed to assess the lowering homocysteine effect according to hyperhomocysteinemia categories at baseline.PMID:36170884 | DOI:10.1055/a-1952-1946

Thromboembolic complications of recreational nitrous oxide (ab)use: a systematic review
We report on the thromboembolic complications, a less known side effect, associated with recreational inhalation of nitrous oxide. An extensive literature search was performed for publications reporting on the thromboembolic complications associated with recreational nitrous oxide abuse. Data about sex, age, location of thrombosis, laboratory findings, therapy and outcome were collected. A total of 13 case reports or case series were identified comprising a total of 14 patients. The reported thromboembolic side effects included deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, mesenterial-, portal and splenic vein thrombosis, ce...
