Article Abstract

We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in pregnant women with essential thrombocythemia. Twenty-one trials and 756 pregnancies met inclusion criteria. The absolute VTE risk in the antepartum period is not above a threshold where low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) prophylaxis is clearly indicated or below a threshold where LMWH should be withheld (2.5%; 95% CI, 1.3-4.3). Postpartum, the absolute VTE risk is above a threshold where postpartum LMWH prophylaxis should be considered (4.4%; 95% CI, 1.2-9.5).

Objective: To analyze the most well-known studies devoted to completion pancreatectomy (CP) for postoperative complications after pancreatoduodenectomy.

Material And Methods: We analyzed original articles and reviews between 1992 and 2023 (number of patients ≥5 (5-120)).

Results: Mean blood loss in CP ranged from 500 to 2180 ml, surgery time - from 144 to 340 min.

Background: Previous results from this phase 3 trial showed that progression-free survival among participants with previously untreated (epidermal growth factor receptor)-mutated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was significantly improved with amivantamab-lazertinib as compared with osimertinib. Results of the protocol-specified final overall survival analysis in this trial have not been reported.

Methods: We randomly assigned, in a 2:2:1 ratio, participants with previously untreated -mutated (exon 19 deletion or L858R substitution), locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC to receive amivantamab-lazertinib, osimertinib, or lazertinib.

Introduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of mortality in cancer patients, and a substantial number of patients are being treated with oral anticoagulants. We aim to assess the comparative effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) compared to warfarin for VTE treatment in cancer patients.

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included 2,367 cancer patients who are new users of oral anticoagulants (OACs) for VTE treatment from 2009 to 2021 in NHS Scotland.

Objective: Patients with heterotaxy-associated congenital heart disease often require multiple operations, which may have a cumulative effect on their outcomes. This study aimed to define the cardiac surgical course in a large cohort and identify longitudinal risk factors for death/transplant.

Methods: All patients with heterotaxy-associated congenital heart disease who underwent cardiac surgery at one institution from 2005 to 2022 were retrospectively reviewed.
