To obtain a thrombin generation (TG) curve from the conversion of added fluorogenic substrate, thrombin concentrations are to be derived from the observed velocity of increase of fluorescence (dF/dt). The relation between velocity and thrombin concentration varies during the experiment because substrate is consumed and because fluorescence is not linear with the concentration of product. Here we review the techniques that we developed to:

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a complex and serious condition characterized by widespread activation of the coagulation cascade, resulting in both thrombosis and bleeding. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of DIC, emphasizing its clinical significance and the need for improved management strategies. We explore the primary causes of DIC, including sepsis, trauma, malignancies, and obstetric complications, which trigger an overactive coagulation response.

Objective: To develop predictive models for assessing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) risk among lumbar disc herniation (LDH) patients and evaluate their performances.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 798 LDH patients treated at the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2017 to December 2023. The patients were divided into a training set (n = 558) and a test set (n = 240) using computer-generated random numbers in a ratio of 7:3.

Background: The bleeding risk of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) changes over time. Most studies thus far evaluated only the baseline bleeding risk with discordant results. The impact of incident thrombocytopenia during direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) therapy and its relation to bleeding has not been previously investigated.

Background: The guidelines recommend anticoagulation management with uninterrupted warfarin or direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) during the atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation periprocedural period.

Objectives: To clarify the Japanese real-world latest periprocedural anticoagulation management during AF ablation.

Methods: This multicenter observational study included 6232 consecutive AF patients (68.
