We investigated the relationship between thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) thrombus grade and thiol/disulfide levels. 182 non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients were divided into two groups; TIMI grade 0 patients who do not have any visible thrombus in their culprit vessels, and TIMI thrombus grade 1-5 patients. Native and total thiol levels and disulfide to thiol ratio were higher in the low thrombus group. In addition, thrombus grade was positively correlated with disulfide to native and total thiol ratio and negatively with native and total thiol levels in NSTEMI patients. We can assert that thiol levels tend to decrease and the disulfide to thiol ratio increase, with the increasing thrombus burden in NSTEMI patients.

Clinical practice guidelines for management of disseminated intravascular coagulation in Japan 2024. Part 3: solid cancers and vascular abnormalities.
Int J Hematol
January 2025
Associated Department With Mie Graduate School of Medicine, Mie Prefectural General Medical Center, Yokkaichi, Japan.
This study discusses disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) associated with solid cancers and various vascular abnormalities, both of which generally exhibit chronic DIC patterns. Solid cancers are among the most significant underlying diseases that induce DIC. However, the severity, bleeding tendency, and progression of DIC vary considerably depending on the type and stage of the cancer, making generalization difficult.

Department of Pediatrics, The University of Tokyo Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Understanding the development of central venous catheter-related thrombus (CVCRT) is vital for the prevention of adverse events caused by thrombi after cardiac surgery in children. However, the risks associated with CVCRT remain controversial. This study analyzed the risk factors of CVCRT based on a detailed evaluation of its morphometric features and severity.

Interventional Radiology, Hospital Sírio Libanês, São Paolo, Brazil.
Purpose: This study assesses the efficacy and safety of Portal Vein Recanalization with Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (PVR-TIPS) in non-cirrhotic patients with chronic portal vein occlusion (CPVO), cavernomatous transformation, and symptomatic portal hypertension (PH) and/or portal vein thrombotic progression.
Material And Methods: Medical records of 21 non-cirrhotic patients with CPVO and portal cavernoma undergoing PVR-TIPS were analyzed. Hemodynamic (intraprocedural reduction in portosystemic pressure gradient), clinical (data on gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal pain, ascites, and presence of esophageal varices from imaging exams) and technical success (PVR-TIPS) assessed efficacy.
HAIC plus lenvatinib and tislelizumab for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with Vp4 portal vein invasion.

Department of Interventional Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, 510062, China.
Background/objective: The treatment strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Vp4 (main trunk) portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) remains controversial due to the dismal prognosis. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) plus lenvatinib and tislelizumab in these patients.
Methods: This multicenter retrospective study included treatment-naive HCC patients with Vp4 PVTT from 2017 to 2022.
Intrinsic neonatal limb ischaemia: A systematic review.

This systematic review aimed to analyse the factors associated with intrinsic neonatal limb ischaemia (INLI), its causes and its management. The review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses guidelines, and 115 articles were identified for analysis. For INLI detected at birth, most newborns presented with upper limb ischaemia (72%), with thrombus being the most common cause (66%).
