Despite the ubiquity of these systems, our ability to predict molecular crystal structures starting only from a two-dimensional diagram of the constituent compound(s) remains a significant challenge. Most structure-prediction protocols require a customized interatomic interaction model on which the quality of the results can depend sensitively.

Purpose: Our objective was to investigate whether patients who receive anticoagulation therapy have different outcomes after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) from those who do not.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a systematic review of studies that compared outcomes of EVAR in patients who were on therapeutic anticoagulation vs those who were not. We developed and reported the review in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines with a registered protocol (CRD42022375894).
