We read with great interest recent scientific letters addressing abdominal aspects of COVID-19. Martín-Falquina IC et al. reported the thrombotic nature of acute pancreatitis (AP) in a patient with COVID-19 and likewise, our patient with AP was previously anticoagulated. The association in the medical literature between viral infections (such as those caused by the human immunodeficiency viruses, hepatitis C and influenza) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) has again become evident in the scientific community, both in 2017 during the epidemic of chicungunya and Zika, and more recently in the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Care pathway for patients hospitalized with venous thromboembolism.

URC PNVS, CIC-EC 1425, INSERM, Bichat - Claude Bernard Hospital, Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, Paris, France.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), is a potentially fatal disease with a multifactorial nature, impacting different medical and surgical specialties. Recently, new guidelines and direct oral anticoagulants facilitated early discharge for most DVT patients and non-severe PE patients.
Objective: The aim of this study is to illustrate the distribution of VTE patients throughout the hospital and map their care pathway from Emergency Department (ED) to hospital discharge.

Healthy Plant-Based Diet, Genetic Predisposition, and the Risk of Incident Venous Thromboembolism.

Department of Cardiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
Background: Plant-based dietary patterns are becoming increasingly popular due to environmental and health impacts, yet there are few studies exploring the relationship between plant-based dietary patterns and venous thromboembolism (VTE) in different genetic backgrounds.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate how plant-based dietary pattern and genetic susceptibility independently or jointly affect VTE and its subtypes of pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis.
Methods: A total of 183,510 participants who were White British ethnicity background and free of VTE at baseline in the UK Biobank were recruited, in consideration that the selection of genetic variants for VTE was based on results of White European individuals.

The relationship between cancer and thrombosis was initially highlighted in the 19th century. Vascular complications in oncology can be arterial or venous thrombosis, and incidental pulmonary embolism is a growing challenge. We aimed to describe the frequency and clinical characteristics of cancer patients with incidental venous thromboembolism (iVTE).
