 Achilles tendon injury necessitates thromboembolism prophylaxis after repair. This study aimed to investigate the effects of antithrombotic-adjusted prophylactic doses of nadroparin calcium and rivaroxaban on Achilles tendon healing.  Twenty-four young adult male were randomly divided into three groups. All rats underwent a full-thickness surgical incision of the Achilles tendon, followed by primary repair. After the procedure, group 1 was determined as the control group and received no medication. Group 2 received 2.03 mg/kg rivaroxaban daily via gastric lavage once daily, and group 3 was given subcutaneous 114 IU AXa nadroparin calcium once daily for 28 days. After euthanization, the degrees of inflammation, neovascularization, fibroblastic activity, and collagen fiber sequencing were examined and scored for histopathological evaluation. The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 21.0 for Windows software (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, Illinois, United States) was used for all statistical analyses. The number of inflammatory cells, capillary vessels, and fibroblasts, which met the parametric tests' assumptions, were compared between three independent groups by one-way analysis of variance. The significance level was set at value < 0.05.  Histological examination of the group 1 sample showed the presence of inflammatory cells, an increase in the number of fibroblasts, and sequencing of collagen fibers scattered. The presence of inflammatory cells, remarkable increases in the number of fibroblasts, the presence of mature collagen fibers, and regular sequencing of collagen fibers regular were shown in groups 2 and 3. There were statistically significant differences between the groups regarding the number of inflammatory cells and fibroblasts. In group 2, the number of inflammatory cells was lower than in groups 1 and 3. Elsewhere, the number of fibroblasts was higher in group 1 compared than in groups 2 and 3.  Both rivaroxaban and nadroparin calcium in their daily dosage have a beneficial effect on Achilles tendon healing.

Introduction: Hemodialysis patients need long-term frequent use of parenteral anticoagulants, and the side effects need to be taken seriously. This study aimed to assess the reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) following administration of unfractionated heparin (UFH), low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs), fondaparinux, and danaparoid, in relation to their usage in European Economic Area (EEA).

Materials And Methods: The total number of ADRs of each anticoagulant between 2017 to 2021 was collected using data from the EudraVigilance database.

Multicharged cyclodextrins have attracted significant attention because of their applications in biology and pharmaceuticals. This study reports an aminoethoxy-phenyl-pyridinium-modified γ-cyclodextrin (PyA-γ-CD) as a highly efficient coagulant for heparin through multivalent interactions. The UV titration experiment is performed to obtain apparent binding constants (K) between PyA-γ-CD and heparin as high as 9.

A retrospective Cohort study on the effect of the LOw-molecular weighT heparin (LMWH) nadroparin dose on anti-XA levels in a mixed medical-surgical ICU population: CLOT-Xa.

Purpose: Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) are widely used for prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in critically ill patients. The objective of this study was to assess the dose-response relationship between nadroparin dose and anti-Xa activity in ICU patients.

Materials And Methods: Critically ill adult patients who were admitted to the ICU, and received at least three subcutaneous injections of nadroparin were included.

Rationale: One of the main characteristics of COVID-19 is the high incidence of venous thromboembolism, particularly pulmonary embolism. Anticoagulation therapy is the primary treatment for pulmonary embolism. Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an antibody-mediated adverse reaction to heparin that occurs during its use of heparin drugs.

Background: Despite the fact that the COVID-19 epidemic has already ended, there is no clear answer to the question - what is the nature of the imbalance in the hemocoagulation system, and which phenomena prevail - thrombosis or hemorrhage? More and more new works appear describing the occurrence of deep, extensive hematomas in patients with COVID-19. However, this experience requires further discussion and understanding.

Case Description: From October 2020 to January 2021, 7 (2,1% among all hospitalized with COVID-19 in this period) patients with developed hematomas were observed at the COVID-19 hospital.
