Substudy of prospective cohort study shows link between SARS-CoV-2 infection and increased risk for postoperative venous thromboembolism

No individual risk factors identified for VITT, but increased mortality seen for those with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, low platelets

Risk for thrombosis doubled if catheter-to-vein ratio exceeds 45 percent for peripherally inserted central catheter

More patients have good outcome with MIST model versus drip-and-ship model in early window within six hours of stroke

Venous thromboembolism occurred less often for those with Crohn disease versus ulcerative colitis

Single, postoperative IV dose of abelacimab superior to enoxaparin for preventing venous thromboembolism, with no increase in bleeding risk

Risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease increased twofold after unprovoked VTE in rheumatoid arthritis

Number of clot retrieval attempts linked to infarct growth, which independently predicts unfavorable outcome in acute ischemic stroke

Odds of VTE increased 8.15-fold according to models adjusting for recent hospitalization and steroid exposure

Prophylactic-dose anticoagulation, but not treatment-dose anticoagulation, associated with lower 60-day mortality
