Background: Pulmonary embolism causes a substantial burden of morbidity and mortality. Although there are several well-established risk factors for pulmonary embolism, a substantial proportion of cases cannot be attributed to provoked or known risk factors. Accumulating evidence has suggested an association of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) with the risk of arterial thromboembolism.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, carries significant morbidity and mortality risks, and is conventionally managed with anticoagulation. In recent years, notable progress has been made in the therapeutic options available for the acute treatment of VTE. The heterogeneity within pulmonary embolism, spanning a wide spectrum of risks, underscores the critical need for precise risk stratification, particularly in identifying individuals prone to right heart failure and increased mortality.

Background: Recommendations on atrial fibrillation (AF) screening by various scientific societies are inconsistent due to uncertainty about its benefit. This study aimed to summarize data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the impact of AF screening on thromboembolism, major bleeding, and mortality.
Methods: We searched PubMed/MEDLINE and Embase to identify studies providing relevant data through September 05, 2024.

The number of atrial catheter ablation procedures has significantly increased in recent years, becoming a first-line treatment modality for various supraventricular tachycardias due to their safety and efficacy. Complications, ranging from mild to life-threatening, can arise during different stages of the procedure, including vascular access complications (eg, hematoma or vascular fistula formation, retroperitoneal bleeding, etc.), thromboembolic complications (eg, stroke, transient ischemic attack, air embolism, etc.

We reviewed the efficacy and safety of intravenous administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) in randomized trials involving patients undergoing intracranial meningioma resection surgery, with special emphasis on the effects of different dosages. A comprehensive search was conducted in the following databases: Cochrane, PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Lilacs, and Web of Science. Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts, reviewed the full texts and collected data.
