Background: Thromboelastography (TEG) is an effective technique to assess the efficiency of coagulation. Phenobarbital (PB) can induce hematological and coagulation disorders in both animals and humans, but its effects on hemostasis have been little investigated and are poorly understood in dogs.
Objectives: The aim of this article was to assess coagulation using TEG in a population of dogs with idiopathic epilepsy treated with PB.

Background: A variety of solid tumours, including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), can cause coagulation abnormalities, and this phenomenon is known as tumour-associated hypercoagulation. We aimed to explore the preoperative thromboelastography (TEG) parameter profiles of OSCC patients, and to investigate their trends in relation to tumour stage progression, and to evaluate their value for predicting cervical lymph node metastasis.
Methods: Data on thromboelastographic parameters and conventional coagulation indices were retrospectively collected, and comparisons were performed among preoperative primary OSCC patients (n = 311), recurrent/metastatic OSCC patients (n = 44) and a control group (n = 71).

Despite their evolutionary novelty, lizard venoms are much less studied in comparison to the intense research on snake venoms. While the venoms of helodermatid lizards have long been assumed to be for defensive purposes, there is increasing evidence of toxic activities more useful for predation than defence (such as paralytic neurotoxicity). This study aimed to ascertain the effects of , , and lizard venoms on the coagulation and cardiovascular systems.

Objective: This study aimed to identify predictors associated with thyroid function and thromboelastograph (TEG) examination parameters and establish a nomogram for predicting the risk of subsequent pregnancy loss in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).
Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed the medical records of 575 RPL patients treated at Lanzhou University Second Hospital, China, between September 2020 and December 2022, as a training cohort. We also included 272 RPL patients from Ruian People's Hospital between January 2020 and July 2022 as external validation cohort.

The potential use of TEG/ROTEM® in evaluating the bleeding risk for rare coagulation disorders needs to be assessed, considering the common mismatch among laboratory tests and the clinical manifestations. As a result, there is currently no published data on the use of viscoelastic tests to assess coagulation in FVII deficient patients undergoing elective neurosurgery. We describe the case of a patient affected by severe FVII deficiency who underwent microvascular decompression (MVD) craniotomy for hemifacial spasm (HFS).
