Background: Little data are available on real-life long-term treatments after a venous thromboembolism (VTE), and on recurrent VTE or bleeds events during treatments.

Methods: We investigated the complications occurring during follow-up (FU) in VTE patients who had received the treatment decisions given by the clinical centers, active in 7 countries (China, Czechia, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Slovakia, Tunisia), which participated in the international, prospective, observational WHITE study.

Results: FU information was collected in 1004 patients, recruited by 62 clinical centers (17 centers did not participate in FU collection).

Boreal regions are changing rapidly with anthropogenic global warming. In order to assess risks and impacts of this process, it is crucial to put these observed changes into a long-term perspective. Summer air temperature variability can be well reconstructed from conifer tree rings.

The Baksan Experiment on Sterile Transitions (BEST) was designed to investigate the deficit of electron neutrinos ν_{e} observed in previous gallium-based radiochemical measurements with high-intensity neutrino sources, commonly referred to as the "gallium anomaly," which could be interpreted as evidence for oscillations between ν_{e} and sterile neutrino (ν_{s}) states. A 3.414-MCi ^{51}Cr ν_{e} source was placed at the center of two nested Ga volumes and measurements were made of the production of ^{71}Ge through the charged current reaction, ^{71}Ga(ν_{e},e^{-})^{71}Ge, at two average distances.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examines how clinical factors like the type of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and the extent of venous thrombosis affect decisions on the duration of secondary prophylaxis after a first VTE event.
  • It involved 1240 patients from 79 clinical centers across 7 countries, focusing primarily on those with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and noting differences in treatment approaches between countries.
  • Findings suggest that factors such as proximal DVT, post-thrombotic syndrome signs, residual vein obstruction, treatment duration, and other health conditions significantly influence whether patients continue secondary prophylaxis with anticoagulants.

Background: International guidelines recommend at least three months anticoagulation in all patients after acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) and suggest those with unprovoked events be considered for indefinite anticoagulation if the risk of recurrence is high and the risk of bleeding during treatment non-high. Other authors have recently argued against using a dichotomy unprovoked/provoked events to decide on anticoagulation duration and suggest instead using overall risk factors present in each patient as the basis for deciding.

Aim: This sub-analysis of the WHITE study aimed at assessing the reasons for the treatment decisions taken by doctors in different countries.
