The relationship between the concomitant use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and elevated prothrombin time-to-international standard ratio (PT-INR) in patients receiving warfarin remains unclear. In the present study, 26 patients treated with ICIs during warfarin therapy were examined for increases in PT-INR within 60 d of ICI administration. Of these patients, 13 developed Grade 2 or higher PT-INR elevations, 5 of which required the immediate administration of vitamin K.

In recent years, large amounts of researches showed that pulmonary embolism (PE) has become a common disease, and PE remains a clinical challenge because of its high mortality, high disability, high missed and high misdiagnosed rates. To address this, we employed an artificial intelligence-based machine learning algorithm (MLA) to construct a robust predictive model for PE. We retrospectively analyzed 1480 suspected PE patients hospitalized in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between May 2015 and April 2020.

AF in patients with HF is known to increase hospitalizations and worsen prognosis. A combination of AF and HF translates into high risks of thromboembolic complications, which renders anticoagulants an important aspect of therapy for these patients.

Introduction: The activation of the plasmatic coagulation system is a significant contributor to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This study aimed to investigate the association between the levels of tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex (t-PAIC), thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), plasmin-α2 plasmin-inhibitor complex (PIC), and thrombomodulin (TM) with clinical outcomes in patients with AMI.
Methods: Blood samples were collected from 368 patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction in the emergency department to assess levels of t-PAIC, TAT, PIC, and TM.
