• Unlike venous thromboembolism, no data are available on arterial thrombosis in SARS-CoV2 infected patients. • We observed severe arterial thrombotic complications despite the use of antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy. • We described five irreversible lower limb ischemia and two thoracic aortic free floating thrombi. • Further studies are needed to evaluate the necessity of therapeutic anticoagulation in COVID-19 patients.

Effects of obstructive sleep apnea on nocturnal changes in blood pressure - a retrospective study.
Hypertens Res
January 2025
School of Medicine, College of Medicine, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Taipei, Taiwan; #155 Section 2, Linong Street, Taipei, 112, Taiwan.
To explore the effects of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on nocturnal changes in blood pressure (BP), we enrolled 2037 participants who underwent polysomnography (PSG) between 2019 and 2020 and examined BP changes before and after sleep. BP was measured in the evening and the following morning using an electronic wrist sphygmomanometer in the supine position. The severity of OSA was determined by PSG and graded based on the apnea/hypopnea index (AHI).

Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol
January 2025
College of Medicine, Chang Gung University, Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Background: To establish an objective method for assessing plus disease severity in retinopathy of prematurity.
Methods: Six images of plus diseases that were color-coded according to severity and published in the International Classification of Retinopathy of Prematurity, Third Edition (ICROP3) were analyzed. These images were individually processed, and the best-fit curve and vessel course in zone I were obtained using ImageJ software.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in trauma: a single-center retrospective observational study.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg
January 2025
ECMO Center Karolinska, Pediatric Perioperative Medicine and Intensive Care, Astrid Lindgren Children's Hospital, Karolinska University Hospital, Akademiska straket 14, Stockholm, 17176, Sweden.
Purpose: Globally, trauma is a leading cause of death in young adults. The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in the trauma population remains controversial due to the limited published research. This study aimed to analyze 30-day survival of all the trauma ECMO patients at our center, with respect to injury severity score (ISS) and new injury severity score (NISS).

Department of Critical Care Medicine, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, Yinchuan, 750004, China.
This study aimed to identify clinical characteristics and develop a prognostic model for non-neutropenic patients with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA). A retrospective analysis of 151 IPA patients was conducted, with patients categorized into survival (n = 117) and death (n = 34) groups. Clinical data, including demographics, laboratory tests, and imaging, were collected.

J Neurosurg Case Lessons
January 2025
The Trauma and Neuroscience Institutes, St. John's Hospital and Medical Center, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Background: Direct carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are relatively rare but dangerous complications of penetrating traumatic brain injury or maxillofacial trauma. A variety of clinical signs have been described, including ophthalmological and neurological ones. In some cases, severely altered cerebral blood flow can present as massive life-threatening bleeding through the nose, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and/or intraparenchymal hemorrhage.
