AI Article Synopsis
- - This study aimed to determine how well D-dimer levels can predict the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients who underwent hepatobiliary-pancreatic surgery.
- - Analyzing data from 178 patients, researchers found that 11.8% developed postoperative DVT, with significantly higher D-dimer levels recorded both before and after surgery in those affected.
- - The D-dimer concentration measured on postoperative day 3 emerged as a key predictor for DVT, alongside factors like preoperative kidney function and albumin levels.
Article Abstract
Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the predictive value of the perioperative D-dimer concentration for the development of postoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after hepatobiliary-pancreatic (HBP) surgery.
Methods: The subjects of this retrospective study were 178 patients who underwent HBP surgery in our hospital between January, 2017 and December, 2021. The D-dimer concentration was measured preoperatively and on postoperative days (POD) 1, 3, and 5. Postoperative DVT was diagnosed based on compression ultrasonography in both lower limbs on POD 6 or 7.
Results: Postoperative DVT developed in 21 (11.8%) of the 178 patients. The D-dimer concentration was significantly higher in the patients with than in those without postoperative DVT before surgery and on PODs 1, 3, and 5. The highest area under the curve of the D-dimer concentration for predicting DVT was 0.762 on POD 3. Multivariate analysis revealed that the D-dimer concentration on POD 3 was an independent predictive risk factor for postoperative DVT, along with the preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate. Preoperative albumin and D-dimer concentrations were also identified as independent predictive factors of an increase in D-dimer concentration on POD 3.
Conclusions: The D-dimer concentration on POD 3 is a useful predictor of DVT after HBP surgery.

The recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic underscores the need for rapid and accurate prediction of clinical thrombotic events. Here, we developed nanoengineered multichannel immunosensors for rapid detection of circulating biomarkers associated with thrombosis, including C-reactive protein (CRP), calprotectin, soluble platelet selectin (sP-selectin), and D-dimer. We fabricated the immunosensors using fiber laser engraving of carbon nanotubes and CO laser cutting of microfluidic channels, along with the electrochemical deposition of gold nanoparticles to conjugate with biomarker-specific aptamers and antibody.

Article Synopsis
- Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), poses a significant risk to patients undergoing craniotomies, especially due to prolonged surgery duration.
- A study involving 1,759 craniotomy patients from 2009 to 2023 showed that postoperative D-dimer testing significantly improved DVT detection rates, while using intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) dramatically reduced VTE occurrences.
- Results indicated that without routine D-dimer checks, nearly 20% of patients faced the risk of undetected thrombosis, emphasizing the importance of D-dimer analysis and IPC in reducing VTE risk during craniotomy procedures.
Objective: To use a point-of-care viscoelastic coagulation monitoring device (VCM-Vet; Entegrion) and traditional tests to assess hemostatic changes during hemorrhagic shock in dogs.
Methods: 8 healthy, purpose-bred Beagles were enrolled in a hemorrhagic shock model conducted from September through December 2021. Dogs were anesthetized, had baseline hemostatic variables measured after blood pressure was stabilized at 70 to 80 mm Hg for 10 minutes (T1), had blood withdrawn from a jugular vein to achieve a mean blood pressure of 40 ± 5 mm Hg for 10 minutes (T2), were resuscitated with 100% shed blood, and then had hemostatic variables evaluated 10 minutes later (T3).

Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCC) is associated with coagulation disorders that frequently culminate in thrombotic events, contributing to increased mortality rates in this clinical condition. Considering the demonstrated effect that extracellular vesicles (EVs) have on regulating inflammatory processes, coagulation, and angiogenesis, the present study aims to characterize plasma EVs and their relationship with coagulation disorders in patients with CCC. A total of 78 patients were assessed with 46.
