Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) is a critical ophthalmic emergency with a high risk of significant visual impairment. While traditional treatment aims to promptly restore blood flow to the retina, recent research has investigated the potential benefits of anticoagulation therapy for managing this condition. This paper reviews current literature and clinical trials investigating the efficacy and safety of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapies, such as systemic heparinization and direct oral anticoagulants and aspirin, in treating RAO.

Bilateral vertebral artery dissections account for only 8% of all vertebral artery dissections and cause just 2% of all ischemic strokes. They can occur spontaneously, even without any triggering factor. Classical clinical findings, such as headache or neck pain, may be absent, particularly in the context of a stroke.

Introduction: Factor XI/XIa (FXI/XIa) has emerged as a potential target for antithrombotic therapy, driven by preclinical evidence showing the role of FXI/XIa inhibition for preventing thrombosis without impeding hemostasis. This is particularly promising for patients at high risk of both thromboembolic events and bleeding, such as patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on hemodialysis (HD).
Methods: We systematically searched Embase, MEDLINE, and ClinicalTrials.

Background: Antithrombotic therapy (AT) after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) has the purpose of preventing device related thrombosis (DRT), avoiding embolic events; nevertheless, the correct antithrombotic regimen after LAAO is still under debate.
Aims: Aim of this substudy of the observational LOGIC registry was to describe the efficacy and safety of a light antithrombotic regimen, comprising single antiplatelet therapy or none, compared to a standard antithrombotic regimen, after a successful LAAO.
Methods: Patients with NVAF that underwent LAAO were previously included in the LOGIC registry.

The purpose of this study is to (1) estimate and compare the prevalence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in children (age 0 to ≤21) with versus without cystic fibrosis (CF); (2) investigate putative associations between specific gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations and the development of VTE among children with CF. This was a multicenter case-control analysis among patients aged 0 to ≤ 21 years between 2010 and 2020, using the TriNetX Research Network. Data queries included ICD-9/10 (International Classification of Diseases-9th/10th Revision) diagnosis codes.
