Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome Causing Critical Limb Ischemia and Ultimately Amputation in an Otherwise Healthy Young Female.
J Am Podiatr Med Assoc
January 2025
†Arbor-Ypsi Foot and Ankle Centers, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
This case report describes an otherwise healthy 43-year-old female who presented with severe pain, foot drop, and critical limb ischemia to her left foot caused by thrombosis of a peripheral artery secondary to antiphospholipid syndrome. Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disease that frequently manifests as recurrent arterial and/or venous thrombotic events, ischemic strokes, and miscarriages. Antiphospholipid syndrome affecting primarily the arteries is less common as compared to venous thrombosis.

Department of Neurology, Inselspital, Bern University Hospital and University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland.
Importance: The net clinical effect of early vs later direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) initiation after atrial fibrillation-associated ischemic stroke is unclear.
Objective: To investigate whether early DOAC treatment is associated with a net clinical benefit (NCB).
Design, Setting, And Participants: This was a post hoc analysis of the Early Versus Late Initiation of Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Post-Ischaemic Stroke Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (ELAN) open-label randomized clinical trial conducted across 103 sites in 15 countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia between November 6, 2017, and September 12, 2022, with a 90-day follow-up.
Aspirin Plus Rivaroxaban Versus Rivaroxaban Alone for the Prevention of Venous Stent Thrombosis Among Patients With Post-Thrombotic Syndrome: The Multicenter, Multinational, Randomized, Open-label ARIVA Trial.
Circulation
January 2025
Department of Angiology, University Hospital Zurich, University of Zurich, Switzerland.
Background: In patients with post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), stent recanalization of iliofemoral veins or the inferior vena cava can restore venous patency and improve functional outcomes. The risk of stent thrombosis is particularly increased during the first 6 months after intervention. The ARIVA trial tested whether daily aspirin 100 mg plus rivaroxaban 20 mg is superior to rivaroxaban 20 mg alone to prevent stent thrombosis within 6 months after stent placement for PTS.

Introduction: Pregnancy induces a hypercoagulable state, characterized by increased coagulation factors and decreased anticoagulants, alongside ongoing fibrinolysis marked by elevated D-dimer (DD) levels. Reference values for DD in pregnancy often exceed the non-pregnant cutoff due to these changes. Elevated DD levels are common in late pregnancy and may correlate with complications such as gestational diabetes, hypertension, and preterm delivery, particularly in cases of preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM).

Liverpool Centre for Cardiovascular Science, University of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores University, and Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, Liverpool, UK.
Aim: (i) To explore the attitudes of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) towards oral anti-coagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention post-intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and (ii) to explore factors that influence patients' decision-making process for stroke prevention.
Methods And Results: Patients with documented diagnosis of AF and history of a non-traumatic ICH, who were eligible for long-term OAC were recruited from eight hospitals in England, using purposive sampling. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analysed using Framework analysis.
