Trends in Research about COVID-19 Vaccine Documented through Bibliometric and Visualization Analysis.

Due to COVID-19, people's lives have changed greatly. In accordance with former experience, an efficacious vaccine is the most effective way to curb the pandemic; thus, many researchers have published related publications in the short term. Hence, this study aims at using bibliometric analysis and visualization to document research trends regarding COVID-19 vaccines, and offer some directions and suggestions for future research.

Association between Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State and Venous Thromboembolism in Diabetes Patients: A Nationwide Analysis in Taiwan.

Background: Previous studies in Western countries have shown that a hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE); in these cases, prophylactic anticoagulant treatment is suggested. However, the association between HHS and VTE in Asian populations remains undetermined. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate whether HHS is associated with an increased risk of VTE in diabetic Taiwanese patients.

Hypothyroidism and the Risk of Venous Thromboembolism: A Nationwide Cohort Study.

Background:  Previous studies have shown that hypothyroidism may have an impact on blood coagulation. However, how hypothyroidism and thyroxine replacement therapy (TRT) affect the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains controversial. This study aimed to examine the associations of hypothyroidism and TRT with VTE risks.
