Background: Inferior vena cava agenesis (IVCA) is a rare vascular abnormality characterised by the absence of one or more segments of the inferior vena cava and represents an underestimated cause of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Given the very low prevalence of this condition and the lack of clinical trials, there is no consensus about the optimal anticoagulation strategy in IVCA-associated DVT.

Objectives: To investigate efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in IVCA-associated DVT.

Although several antithrombotic strategies have been investigated for the management of cryptogenic strokes, ie, ischemic strokes without known etiologies, an optimal antithrombotic strategy for cryptogenic strokes is unknown. We aim to assess oral antithrombotic agents' comparative efficacy and safety after cryptogenic stroke to identify an optimal treatment.A systematic review and meta-analysis synthesizing evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) obtained from PubMed, Embase Cochrane, Scopus, and Web of Science until February 2024.

Introduction Parenteral heparin is widely used as bridging therapy while optimising oral anticoagulation(OAC). Newer Direct-Acting OACs(DOACs) attain therapeutic effect very quickly. We report the use of dabigatran as bridging therapy during warfarin optimization for cardioembolic stroke in two patients who opted to receive warfarin for long-term anticoagulation for secondary stroke prevention.

Background: While anticoagulation therapy is highly effective at treating venous thromboembolism, some patients can develop rapidly progressive thrombosis in multiple organs or sites despite therapeutic anticoagulation. Effective strategies to manage life-threatening thrombosis in these patients are elusive.

Objectives: We describe our experience using dual direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) therapy with a factor (F)Xa inhibitor (such as rivaroxaban or apixaban) and a FIIa inhibitor (dabigatran) for refractory cases of thrombosis.

Background: Acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) in children presents unique challenges due to the limitations of standard anticoagulation therapies. Herein, we aimed to systematically review randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in pediatric patients with acute VTE.

Methods: PubMed and Embase databases were searched for RCTs comparing DOACs to standard anticoagulation in pediatric VTE patients.
