Background: This study aims to investigate the value of the AngioJet thrombectomy system with adjunct of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in treating lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LEDVT).
Methods: 48 patients who were clinically confirmed LEDVT and treated by percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) combined with CDT, were included in this retrospective study (AJ-CDT, n = 33; Suction-CDT, n = 15). Baseline characteristics, clinical outcomes and surveillance data were reviewed and analyzed.
Objective: The National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) has made great progress in promoting the development of aortic dissection research in recent years. This study aimed to examine the development and research status of aortic dissection research in China so as to provide references for future research.
Methods: The NSFC projects data from 2008 to 2019 were collected from the Internet-based Science Information System and other websites utilized as search engines.
Clinical risk score for postoperative pneumonia following heart valve surgery.

Article Synopsis
- Postoperative pneumonia (POP) is a common infection after heart valve surgery and increases health risks and costs, motivating the study to identify risk factors and create a clinical risk score.
- The study included adults who underwent heart valve surgery from 2016 to 2019, using multivariable logistic regression to find 10 key risk factors associated with POP and developed a 22-point risk score.
- The score showed strong predictive ability for POP risk, which could help healthcare professionals target preventive measures based on patients' risk levels.
