Purpose: The SARS-CoV-2 disease predisposes infected individuals to thrombosis, the underlying mechanisms of which are not fully understood. The balance between pro-coagulant factors and natural coagulation inhibitors in critically ill patients with Covid-19 is fundamental to the prevention and treatment of complications. The aim of the present study was to investigate the pulmonary injury patterns in Covid-19 having higher mortality in the presence of deep vein thrombosis in comparison to patients without venous thrombosis and determine the Gamma variant.

This study aimed to determine the monthly and overall mortality rates by sex and age group in patients hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the prevalence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in those patients. We also investigated whether the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) P.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Current evidence points to a state of hypercoagulability (consequence of hyperinflammation) as an important pathogenic mechanism that contributes to the increase in mortality in cases of COVID-19. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of deep-vein thrombosis on mortality patient's infected with SARS-CoV-2.
Method: A clinical trial was conducted involving 200 consecutive patients with COVID-19-100 patients who were positive for deep-vein thrombosis (venous Doppler ultrasound) and 100 who were negative for deep-vein thrombosis at a public hospital.
Background: Among the multiple complex pathophysiological mechanisms underlying Covid-19 pneumonia, immunothrombosis has been shown to play a key role.
Objective: The aim of the present study was to assess the monthly prevalence of deep venous thrombosis in a university hospital that admitted 5159 patients with Covid-19 in the medical ward and intensive care unit (ICU) and investigate whether there has been an increase in the prevalence of deep vein thrombosis and dead recently.
Method: A clinical trial was conducted evaluating 5159 patients admitted to the university hospital, Hospital de Base in São Jose do Rio Preto-Brazil, with a positive test for Covid-19, the prevalence of monthly deep venous thrombosis and the increase in thrombotic and events and mortality in March 2020 to April 2021 compared to the previous January and February with March-April of 2021.

Several biosimilar versions of enoxaparin are already approved and in use globally. Analytical characterization can establish good quality control in manufacturing, but they may not assure similarity in clinical outcomes between biosimilar and branded enoxaparin. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of biosimilar Cristália versus branded Sanofi enoxaparin in venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery at risk for VTE.
