BCR::ABL1-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are classically represented by polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, and primary myelofibrosis. BCR::ABL1-negative MPNs are significantly associated with morbidity and mortality related to an increased risk of thrombo-hemorrhagic events. They show a consistent association with splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), either represented by the portal, mesenteric or splenic vein thrombosis, or Budd-Chiari Syndrome. SVT is also a frequent presenting manifestation of MPN. MPNs associated with SVT show a predilection for younger women, high association with JAK2V617F mutation, low JAK2V617F variant allele frequency (generally <10 %), and low rates of CALR, MPL, or JAK2 exon 12 mutations. Next-Generation Sequencing techniques have contributed to deepening our knowledge of the molecular landscape of such cases, with potential diagnostic and prognostic implications. In this narrative review, we analyze the current perspective on the molecular background of MPN associated with SVT, pointing as well future directions in this field.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal surgery remains underexplored, despite its potential impact on postoperative recovery. This study aimed to develop and validate a predictive nomogram for assessing the risk of lower-limb DVT in such patients without chemoprophylaxis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 935 patients with postoperative lower-limb vein ultrasonography.

Background: Liver cirrhosis accounts for more than 90 % of portal hypertension cases, and the other cases are due to noncirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH). Variceal bleeding is the most life-threatening complication of portal hypertension and its primary treatment is medical according to the Baveno VII guidelines. This review discusses the evidence on surgical portal decompression for adult patients with NCPH secondary to chronic extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO).

Objective: Frailty has become an increasingly recognized perioperative risk stratification tool. While frailty has been strongly correlated with worsening surgical outcomes, the individual determinants of frailty have rarely been investigated in the setting of aortic disease. The aim of this study was to examine the determinants of an 11-factor modified frailty index (mFI-11) on mortality and postoperative complications in patients undergoing endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR).

Stenosis within the arteriovenous fistula (AVF) of hemodialysis patients leads to vascular access dysfunction and inadequate hemodialysis. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is the standard therapy for stenosis. However, rates of restenosis and loss of access patency remain high.

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of first-line targeted synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (tsDMARDs) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 216 patients with RA prescribed their first tsDMARDs at two hospitals between 2013 and 2022. Dose reduction and contraindication guidelines for tsDMARDs according to kidney function were followed.
