The clinical spectrum of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is wide, ranging from minor, nonspecific symptoms to severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, multiorgan involvement, and shock. In severe cases, the acute systemic inflammatory response, coagulation activation, and diffuse endothelial damage may, in combination with hypoxia, immobilization, and underlying risk factors, result in potentially life-threatening venous and arterial thrombotic events. The first data from single-center retrospective studies suggest that thrombotic events are a key aspect of COVID-19-associated morbidity and mortality. We have planned and will be launching the COvid REgistry on THROMBOSIS (CORE-THROMBOSIS), a large online registry of previously or currently hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The study aims to (i) determine the rate of acute thrombotic events in consecutive hospitalized patients with coronavirus (COVID-19); (ii) investigate the current use and trends in thromboprophylaxis regimens; and (iii) describe the use of imaging tests for the detection of cardiovascular events in patients with COVID-19.

Life-threatening spontaneous splenic rupture in congenital afibrinogenemia: Two case reports and systematic literature review.
J Forensic Leg Med
January 2025
Department of Legal Medicine, Teaching Hospital of Taher Sfar, 5100, Mahdia, Tunisia; Faculty of Medicine of Monastir, University of Monastir, Tunisia.
Background: Spontaneous splenic rupture is a rare life-threatening finding with a challenging diagnosis which is largely ignored in the literature. Hematological disorders such as afibrinogenemia are reported to cause bleeding disorders mostly cerebral hemorrhage. Despite being a life-threatening condition, data about spontaneous splenic rupture in patients with Afibrinogenemia remain scarce.

School of Medicine; College of Health Sciences, Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Background: Thromboembolic events are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer. While direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been established as the preferred agents of anticoagulation in most patients with cancer, data in resource-limited settings is limited.
Aims: The study aims to assess the comparative efficacy and safety of warfarin and rivaroxaban for cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) in a resource-limited setting.
Association between the Tpeak-Tend interval on admission and coronary microvascular dysfunction in Takotsubo syndrome.
ESC Heart Fail
January 2025
Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Kindai University Faculty of Medicine, Osaka, Japan.
Aims: The Tpeak-Tend interval on electrocardiogram may be a predictor of worse outcomes in Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), but the mechanisms have not been fully determined. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between the corrected Tpeak-Tend (cTp-e) interval and coronary microvascular-dysfunction (CMD) assessed by the angiography-derived index of microvascular resistance (Angio-IMR) and the in-hospital prognosis in patients with TTS.
Methods And Results: We retrospectively evaluated 111 consecutive patients admitted for TTS who underwent coronary angiography at Kindai University Hospital from October 2009 to July 2023.
Efficacy and Safety Results With Rilzabrutinib, an Oral Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor, in Patients With Immune Thrombocytopenia: Phase 2 Part B Study.
Am J Hematol

Hematology Division, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Current treatments for persistent or chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) are limited by inadequate response, toxicity, and impaired quality of life. The Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor rilzabrutinib was evaluated to further characterize safety and durability of platelet response. LUNA2 Part B is a multicenter, phase 1/2 study in adults with ITP (≥ 3 months duration, platelet count < 30 × 10/L) who failed ≥ 1 ITP therapy (NCT03395210, EudraCT 2017-004012-19).

Introduction: Psoriasis (PsO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) may confer an increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) disease, including major adverse cerebro-cardiovascular events (MACE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism (PE). Patients with these conditions are often exposed for extended time periods to biologics, such as ixekizumab (IXE). Therefore, understanding the risk of CV events, especially MACE, in patients with PsO, PsA, and axSpA exposed to IXE is important.
