Retrospective study of incidence/prevalence of pigmentary maculopathy and retinopathy in patients receiving pentosan polysulfate sodium.
PLoS One
January 2025
Verana Health, San Francisco, CA, United States of America.
Purpose: To evaluate prevalence and incidence rates of pigmentary maculopathy and retinopathy (PM/PR), and visual acuity (VA) changes in patients exposed to pentosan polysulfate sodium (PPS) and in patients with interstitial cystitis (IC) not exposed to PPS.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study (January 2015-March 2021) which included adult de-identified patients from the American Academy of Ophthalmology IRIS® Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight) and Komodo Health database. Three patient cohorts were identified: two PPS-exposed patient cohorts, and Non-PPS-exposed IC patient cohort.
Impact of Apixaban Lead-In Therapy Duration After Parenteral Anticoagulation on Bleeding in Patients Treated for Venous Thromboembolism.
J Pharm Pract

Department of Pharmacy, Veterans Affairs Hospital, Memphis, TN, USA.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) treatment with apixaban uses a higher 10 mg twice daily regimen for 7 days (lead-in therapy). But, in patients with initial parenteral anticoagulation treatment or those with higher bleeding risk, clinicians may not always adhere to the full 7-day lead-in duration. This retrospective cohort study included adult patients admitted to the Veterans Affairs Health care System from January 2011 to April 2022, who received at least 24 hours of parenteral anticoagulation followed by lead-in apixaban therapy for VTE.

A medical emergency, PF cases often require the involvement of consultant hematologists to assist with diagnosis and management of patients who are in a highly dynamic and deteriorating clinical situation. Patients who survive past the first 24 to 72 hours often die from complications of unchecked thrombosis rather than from shock, and survivors are usually left with severe scarring and tissue loss.

Methods: The United States Medicare claims database (2008- 18) was used to identify patients aged ≥65 years with MCI or AD and to evaluate their anticoagulant use from 2016- 17. A random sample of new anticoagulant users (n = 21,069) was selected.
Integrating D-Dimer Thresholds into the Revised Caprini Risk Stratification to Predict Deep Vein Thrombosis Risk in Preoperative Knee Osteoarthritis Patients.
Clin Appl Thromb Hemost
January 2025
Department of Nursing, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.
Introduction: Preoperative patients with knee osteoarthritis have a significantly increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). While the Caprini risk assessment model offers some clinical guidance in predicting deep vein thrombosis (DVT), it has a relatively low predictive accuracy. Enhancing the model by integrating biomarkers, such as D-dimers, can potentially improve its accuracy.
