Machine learning and artificial intelligence tools were used to investigate the discriminatory potential of blood serum metabolites for thromboembolism and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). H-NMR-based metabonomics data of the serum samples of patients with arterial or venous thromboembolism (VTE) without APS (n = 32), thrombotic primary APS patients (APS, n = 32), and healthy controls (HCs) (n = 32) were investigated. Unique metabolic profiles between VTE and HCs, APS and HCs, and between VTE and triple-positive APS groups were indicative of the significant alterations in the metabolic pathways of glycolysis, the TCA cycle, lipid metabolism, and branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism, and pointed to the complex pathogenesis mechanisms of APS and VTE.

We report a rare case of a middle-aged Omani woman who was known to have primary antiphospholipid syndrome, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, and iron deficiency anaemia. Cannulation attempts caused bulla which progressed to ulceration. A pathergy phenomenon with high suspicion of pyoderma gangrenosum was postulated.

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), a synthetic antimalarial, is recognized for its immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and vascular-protective effects. In 20-30% of cases of primary obstetrical antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), the combination of antiplatelet aggregation and prophylactic anticoagulation fails to prevent obstetrical complications, a situation referred to as refractory obstetrical APS. This is partly due to the pro-inflammatory effects of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) binding to decidual and trophoblastic cells, which compromise embryonic implantation and placentation.

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are similar to be characterized by thromboembolic events and various clinical manifestations. We experienced a 21-year-old man with acute iliocaval deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Primary APS was initially diagnosed on the criteria, and after multidisciplinary treatment, iliocaval DVT was gradually regressed.
