Article Abstract
Polycythemia vera is a myeloproliferative neoplasm with increased risk of thrombosis and progression to myelofibrosis. However, no disease-specific risk factors have been identified so far. Circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) are mostly of megakaryocyte (MK-EVs) and platelet (PLT-EVs) origin and, along with phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-EVs, play a role in cancer and thrombosis. Interestingly, circulating microbial components/microbes have been recently indicated as potential modifiers of inflammation and coagulation. Here, we investigated phenotype and microbial DNA cargo of EVs after isolation from the plasma of 38 patients with polycythemia vera. Increased proportion of MK-EVs and reduced proportion of PLT-EVs identify patients with thrombosis history. Interestingly, EVs from patients with thrombosis history were depleted in DNA but enriched in DNA from Actinobacteria members as well as . In addition, patients with thrombosis history had also lower levels of lipopolysaccharide-associated EVs. In regard to fibrosis, along with increased proportion of PE-EVs, the EVs of patients with marrow fibrosis were enriched in DNA from and . Here, we identified a polycythemia-vera-specific host/microbial EV-based signature associated to thrombosis history and marrow fibrosis. These data may contribute to refining PV prognosis and to identifying novel druggable targets.

Background: Deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity is a common and fatal complication of hip fracture in the elderly. However, there is a lack of targeted laboratory diagnostic methods. Although traditional laboratory indicators can provide some reference, the diagnostic efficiency is relatively limited This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracies of thromboelastography (TEG) combined with traditional coagulation parameters for early diagnosis of newly occurring lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in elderly patients with hip fractures.

Introduction: In postmenopausal women who are estrogen deficient, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has been shown to improve fragility fracture risk. However, few studies have examined the relationship between HRT and periprosthetic fracture (PPF) risk after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of HRT use on 10-year PPF risk following THA.

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: Obstructive complications in the Fontan circulation pose significant risks to affected patients. Traditional management strategies may be insufficient, necessitating innovative treatment approaches. This case report discusses the use of the FlowTriever Retrieval System for percutaneous aspiration thrombectomy in a patient with a history of Fontan procedure who developed conduit obstruction due to thrombus formation.
