Article Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to study the risk factors influencing the occurrence of moderate to severe post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) within 2 years in patients with subacute lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Methods: Seventy patients who developed moderate to severe PTS within 2 years after subacute lower extremity DVT from June 2018 to June 2022 were retrospectively selected as the case group. They were matched 1:1 by sex and age (±5 years) with 70 patients who did not develop moderate to severe PTS during the same follow-up period as the control group. Multiple logistic regression, stratified analysis, and interaction analyses were used to explore the risk factors for moderate to severe PTS.

Results: The multiple logistic regression model showed that patients with iliofemoral vein thrombosis had a significantly increased risk of developing moderate to severe PTS within 2 years. Patients who underwent intraluminal intervention treatment during hospitalization had a significantly reduced risk. The odds ratios were 4.000 (95% confidence interval, 1.597-10.016) for the femoral-popliteal vein thrombosis and 0.262 (95% confidence interval, 0.106-0.647) for the anticoagulation treatment group. The stratified analysis showed that intraluminal intervention treatment was a protective factor against moderate to severe PTS within 2 years across different strata of hypertension, thrombus type, body mass index, duration of anticoagulation, and wearing compression stockings. Additionally, there was an interaction between thrombus type and treatment method, with intraluminal intervention treatment having a more pronounced effect on preventing moderate to severe PTS in patients with iliofemoral vein thrombosis.

Conclusions: Iliofemoral vein thrombosis is a risk factor for the development of moderate to severe PTS within 2 years in patients with subacute lower extremity DVT. Intraluminal intervention treatment can reduce the risk of moderate to severe PTS, especially in patients with iliofemoral vein thrombosis.

Background: Active vitamin D metabolites, including 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25D) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D), have potent immunomodulatory effects that attenuate acute kidney injury (AKI) in animal models.

Methods: We conducted a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, multiple-dose, 3-arm clinical trial comparing oral calcifediol (25D), calcitriol (1,25D), and placebo among 150 critically ill adult patients at high-risk of moderate-to-severe AKI. The primary endpoint was a hierarchical composite of death, kidney replacement therapy (KRT), and kidney injury (baseline-adjusted mean change in serum creatinine), each assessed within 7 days following enrollment using a rank-based procedure.

Importance: Exposure to inflammation from chorioamnionitis places the fetus at higher risk of premature birth and may increase the risk of neurodevelopmental impairments, though the evidence for the latter is mixed.

Objective: To evaluate whether moderate to severe histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA) is directly associated with adverse motor performance, independent of the indirect mediating effects of premature birth.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This prospective, population-based cohort study recruited participants between September 16, 2016, and November 19, 2019, from referral and nonreferral neonatal intensive care units of 5 southwestern Ohio hospitals.

Research suggests that Problem Gambling (PG) may result from maladaptive emotional regulation strategies aimed at escaping emotions and stress caused by negative life events and trauma. The current study, aimed to examine the effect of exposure to the mass trauma of October 7, 2023 terror attack and the consequent Swords of Iron war in Israel, and difficulties in emotional regulation on PG. We utilized longitudinal data of self-reports in the Problem Gambling Severity Index collected before the terror attack (April 2022) and during the Swords of Iron war (December 2023, March 2024, June 2024; N = 899) from a large sample of adult Jewish Israelis.

Background: Long-term outcomes of transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER) are compared with medical therapy remain under investigation. This study evaluated the 3-year effects of MitraClip on mitral regurgitation (MR) severity, ventricular remodeling, and clinical outcomes in high surgical-risk patients.

Methods: A single-center retrospective cohort included 31 MitraClip patients (2016-2023) and 30 contemporaneous controls on maximally tolerated guideline-directed medical therapy.
