Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of D-dimer detection in the diagnosis and treatment of thrombotic diseases.
Methods: Peripheral blood samples were collected from 156 patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI), 38 patients with deep venous thrombosis (DVT), and 148 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), all under relevant treatment, and 170 healthy examinees. The level of plasma D-dimer was detected by ELISA before and after the treatment.
Results: The positive rates of plasma D-dimer of the ACI, DVT, and AMI patients before treatment were 59.3%, 100.0%, and 61.7% respectively, all significantly higher than that of the health examinees (4.3%, all P < 0.01). And the positive rates of plasma D-dimer decreased rapidly after treatment in the patients of these 3 groups who responded magnificently to thrombolysis treatment (all P < 0.01).
Conclusion: Increased in most thrombotic patients, the plasma D-dimer level helps diagnose thrombotic diseases early and reflect the efficacy of thrombolysis treatment.

: Acute stent thrombosis (ST) is a rare yet severe complication following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Herein, we investigated the possible association between routinely available coagulation and fibrinolysis markers with early ST. : Within a single-center registry, we investigated the association between the preprocedural platelet count, plasma levels of fibrinogen and D-Dimer, and the incidence of early ST in the first 30 days after PCI.

Splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), which is particularly prevalent in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), has a multifactorial pathomechanism involving the anticoagulant protein C (PC) pathway. To better characterize the hypercoagulable state in SVT we assessed its key enzymes thrombin and activated PC (APC). The study population included 73 patients with SVT, thereof 36 MPN+, confirmed by bone marrow biopsy, 37 MPN-, and 30 healthy controls.

Objective: To determine the incidence of clinical and subclinical venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) treated with high-dose thromboprophylaxis during definitive chemoradiation and brachytherapy.
Methods: A prospective observational study was undertaken from August 2021 to December 2023 in patients with primary LACC treated with definitive chemoradiation in two Dutch tertiary hospitals. Patients received high-dose thromboprophylaxis during chemoradiation and brachytherapy.

There is currently no clinically valid biomarker for predicting the growth and prognosis of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). The most promising candidates with the highest diagnostic values are plasma D-dimers and markers of activated neutrophils, i.e.
