Aim We aimed to determine the incidence of thrombotic complications and outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and evaluate the association between combined antithrombotic therapy and mortality in ICU patients admitted for COVID-19 pneumonia. Methods We retrospectively collected data of adult critically ill patients with COVID-19 admitted to the ICU in a major hospital in Dubai during the COVID-19 pandemic. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality.

Background: Candidate biomarkers to improve venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk prediction in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) undergoing anti-myeloma therapy include tissue factor-bearing microvesicles (MV-TF), procoagulant phospholipids (procoag-PPL), and D-dimer.
Objective: We aimed to determine the levels of MV-TF, procoag-PPL, and D-dimer at baseline and during initial anti-myeloma therapy and their association with the risk of VTE.
Methods: This prospective, longitudinal, observational study included 71 patients with newly diagnosed MM who were eligible for anti-myeloma therapy.

Objective: This study sought to investigate the changes in plasma D-dimer levels during catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in patients with acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT), analyze imaging results, and assess their clinical implications.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 62 patients diagnosed with acute lower extremity DVT who underwent CDT between March 2019 and December 2022. Plasma D-dimer levels were measured before CDT, at regular intervals after CDT, and at the end of CDT.

Patients with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) may experience poor response to anticoagulant therapy and delayed surgical treatment may lead to clinical deterioration. However, the factors contributing to clinical deterioration remain poorly understood. Patients with CVT from three centers between January 2017 and October 2023 were included and grouped as the development cohort and validation cohort.

Background: Central venous catheters (CVCs) are placed where the vena cava meets the right atrium. Their common use raises the risk of catheter-related thrombosis (CRT), a potentially life-threatening complication.
Aim: This study leverages machine learning to develop a CRT predictive model for abdominal surgery patients, aiming to refine clinical decisions and elevate treatment quality.
