  • - A comprehensive meta-analysis was conducted using several academic databases, and STATA 16.0 software was utilized to analyze the data and estimate the odds ratio between the gene polymorphism and VTE risk.
  • - The findings of the meta-analysis will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, and ethical approval was not necessary for this review.

Article Abstract

Background: Previous studies displayed that thrombomodulin gene polymorphisms are closely associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE), while the results are inconsistent. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to accurately determine the association between thrombomodulin gene polymorphism and the risk of VTE.

Methods: Wanfang, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, the Chongqing VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database, PubMed, EmBase, and Web of Science databases were searched, and the time to build the database was set until January 2021. The association between thrombomodulin gene polymorphism and the risk of VTE was evaluated. Meta-analysis was performed with STATA 16.0 software, and the odds ratio and its 95% confidence interval were applied to estimate the relationship between thrombomodulin gene polym'orphism and the risk of VTE.

Results: The results of this meta-analysis will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication.

Conclusion: This meta-analysis will summarize the relationship between thrombomodulin genepolymorphism and VTE risk.

Ethics And Dissemination: Ethical approval was not required for this study. The systematic review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal, presented at conferences, and shared on social media platforms. This review would be disseminated in a peer-reviewed journal or conference presentations.

Background: Clinical expressivity of the thrombophilic factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation is highly variable. Recently, we demonstrated an increased APC (activated protein C) response in asymptomatic FVL carriers compared with FVL carriers with a history of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after in vivo coagulation activation. Here, we further explored this association using a recently developed ex vivo model based on patient-specific endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs).

Thrombomodulin (TM) expressed on endothelial cells regulates coagulation. Specific nonsense variants in the TM gene, THBD, result in high soluble TM levels causing rare bleeding disorder. In contrast, though THBD variants have been associated with venous thromboembolism, this association remains controversial.

Background: Tumour type, treatment and patient related factors contribute to cancer associated venous thromboembolism (VTE), however, the role of each factor and the mechanisms involved are not understood.

Aim: To assess the role of the tumour, and of chemotherapy, in mediating the procoagulant response associated with VTE in gynaecological cancer patients.

Methods: Gynaecological cancer patients who developed VTE during follow-up (n = 59) (VTE+) were matched with treatment naïve(treatment (-)(VTE-)(n = 120) and chemotherapy treated patients(treatment (+)(VTE-) (n = 57)).

Thrombomodulin (TM) is an important regulator of intravascular blood coagulation and inflammation. TM inhibits the procoagulant and proinflammatory activities of thrombin and promotes the thrombin-induced activation of protein C (PC) bound to the endothelial PC receptor (EPCR). Activated PC (APC) inactivates coagulation factors Va and VIIIa, thereby inhibiting blood clotting.

Background: In organ transplantation, cold ischemia is associated with sterile inflammation that subsequently conditions adaptive immunity directed against the grafts during revascularization. This inflammation is responsible for venous thrombosis, which is the main postoperative complication affecting graft function. Our aim was to investigate the modulation of immune responses and endothelial function of pancreatic grafts during cold ischemia using different preservation modalities.
