Flow diversion is a transformative approach in neurointerventional surgery for intracranial aneurysms that relies heavily on effective antiplatelet therapy. The ideal approach, including the timing of treatment, the use of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), and the number of flow-diverter devices to use, remains unknown. DAPT, which combines aspirin with a thienopyridine like clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor, is the standard regimen, balancing thromboembolic protection and hemorrhagic risk.

Objective: To develop and validate a nomogram for predicting non-retrieval of the short-term retrievable inferior vena cava (IVC) filters.
Methods: In this study, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify predictive factors of short-term retrievable filter (Aegisy or OptEase) non-retrieval, and a nomogram was then established based on these factors. The nomogram was created based on data from a training cohort and validated based on data from a validation cohort.

Background: Venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) are the second-leading cause of death in cancer patients, with an incidence of 5%-17% in lymphoma patients, particularly higher in those with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Existing risk assessment models (RAMs) like the Khorana and ThroLy scores have limitations and are inadequately validated for NHL patients. Coagulation markers such as D-dimer, thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), and thrombomodulin (TM) show a potential predictive value for cancer-associated VTE but lack extensive research in NHL.

Despite concerns about potential side effects, based both on historical experience with plasma products and more recent concerns about contemporary use of plasma, COVID-19 convalescent plasma has been shown to be a very safe product. Research early in the COVID-19 pandemic documented-among the very large population of convalescent plasma recipients in the US Convalescent Plasma Study component of the FDA-authorized Expanded Access Program-that the overall risk profile was no different than that seen for fresh frozen plasma, a product used routinely in medical practice. The safety of CCP was further demonstrated using real-world evidence, pragmatic trials, and formal randomized trials.

This study aimed to evaluate the incidence, risk factors, clinical implications, and rescue maneuvers of technical complications related to embolic protection devices (EPDs) during carotid artery stenting (CAS). We retrospectively reviewed all patients who had undergone CAS with EPDs between April 2018 and March 2024. The incidence and types of technical complication associated with EPDs were assessed.
