Objective: This study aims to provide effective treatment by comparing the venous recanalization responses of oral anticoagulants in deep vein thrombosis therapy.
Methods: From January 2013 to March 2019, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 109 patients who had been diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis and received treatment with apixaban, rivaroxaban, or warfarin within 1 week of symptom onset. Demographic, clinical data, and venous recanalization responses on Doppler ultrasonography of the patients that were followed-up 1 year from the date of diagnosis were evaluated.
Results: At the end of the 1-year follow-up, 21 (19.3%) patients had delayed recanalization, 39 (35.8%) patients had partial recanalization, and 49 (44.9%) patients had complete recanalization. The mean time to complete recanalization was 9.178 months for apixaban, 8.986 months for rivaroxaban, and 10.641 months for warfarin. Rivaroxaban was found to result in earlier completion of recanalization compared to warfarin ( = .012).
Conclusion: Direct oral anticoagulants might be more effective than vitamin K antagonists in achieving complete recanalization in patients that have deep vein thrombosis. Improving outcomes can be achieved by evaluating current treatment options.

Background: Pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism (PA-VTE) seriously threatens maternal health. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, risk factors, treatments, and pregnancy outcomes to better prevent and treat PA-VTE.
Methods: PA-VTE patients were selected from 171,898 women who were registered in the Department of Obstetrics of Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital from January 2014 to August 2023 and delivered to calculate the incidence.

Objective The impact of type 1 DM (T1DM) on thromboembolism in pregnancy is uncertain. We hypothesized that T1DM is associated with higher rates of thrombotic events during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study utilizing the National Inpatient Sample database from HCUP/AHRQ for 2017-2019.

The link between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) is not well understood. We performed a 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study to explore the potential causal effect of GERD on VTE. To explore the causal relationship between genetically predicted GERD and the risk of VTE, including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is one of the important factors leading to death in patients undergoing fracture surgery. This study aims to investigating the predictive value of the Caprini score combined with thrombus molecular markers for the risk of DVT in patients after traumatic fracture surgery. A total of 342 patients who underwent surgery for traumatic fractures were included in the study.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), consisting of both deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is an extremely common condition both in the United States and worldwide. Not only is the diagnosis associated with significant morbidity and mortality for patients, but also it imposes a deleterious financial burden on the US healthcare system. Diagnosis may be challenging due to variability in clinical presentation and requires a sequential workup including assessment of clinical pretest probability for VTE, D-dimer testing, and imaging.
