Venous Thrombosis

Venous thrombosis is a serious medical condition where a blood clot forms in a vein, often in the leg or pelvis.
This can lead to complications like swelling, pain, and potentially life-threatening pulmonary embolism if the clot travels to the lungs.
Accurate diagnosis and effective treatment are crucial for managing venous thrombosis and preventing long-term consequences.
Researchers can leverage PubCompare.ai's AI-driven platform to streamline their studies, locate the best protocols, and identify the most effective approaches, enhancing reproducability and research accuracy in this important field of medicine.

Comprehensive Baseline Questionnaire for CVD

The baseline questionnaire (Q_0) included 554 questions about a wide array of characteristics: socio-demographic (e.g. sex, age and marital status), anthropometric (e.g. weight and height, weight gain in the past five years), lifestyle and health-related habits (e.g. smoking status, physical activity), diet (e.g. energy and alcohol intakes), employment status (e.g. employed/unemployed and working hours/week), obstetric history for women (e.g. pregnancy) and medical history (e.g. prevalence of chronic diseases and medication use). Total energy and alcohol intakes were ascertained through a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (136 food items) previously validated in Spain [26 (link)]. Physical activity was collected through a validated questionnaire that included information about 17 activities such as walking, running, cycling, swimming, judo, soccer, skiing or sailing. To quantify the volume of activity during leisure time, an activity metabolic equivalent (MET) index was computed by assigning a multiple of resting metabolic rate (MET score) to each activity [27 (link)], and the time spent in each of the activities was multiplied by the MET score specific to each activity, and then summed the overall activities obtaining a value of overall weekly MET-hours. Leisure time physical activity estimated with the questionnaire was previously validated by our group using a tri-axial accelerometer as the gold standard. Physical activity during leisure time (estimated as MET-h/week) derived from the questionnaire moderately correlated with Kcal/day assessed through the accelerometer (Spearman's rho = 0.507, 95% CI: 0.232 – 0.707, p < 0.001) [28 (link)].
Participants were classified as having cardiovascular disease at baseline or at follow-up if they reported at least one of the following conditions: myocardial infarction, stroke, atrial fibrillation, paroxysmal tachycardia, coronary artery bypass grafting or other revascularization procedures, heart failure, aortic aneurism, pulmonary embolism, or peripheral venous thrombosis. Information regarding cancer both at baseline and during follow-up was also collected.

Murine Inferior Vena Cava Thrombosis Model

This model provides a total stasis environment and results in the most severe vein wall reaction to thrombosis of the models discussed.^{8 (link),17 (link),20 (link),23} Studies in rats suggest that after IVC ligation a combination of stasis-induced vein wall injury and enhanced tissue factor expression in endothelial cells and leukocytes produce thrombosis.^{42 (link)} In this model, mice are anesthetized and a midline laparotomy is performed. The small bowel is exteriorized and placed on a moistened gauze pad to the animal’s left. The infrarenal IVC is identified and all side branches are ligated with nonreactive 7-0 Prolene suture. Posterior venous branches are cauterized.²³ A 7-0 Prolene suture is tied down on the IVC, caudal to the left renal vein. This model has been widely used by our group for the study of venous thrombosis.^{8 (link),17 (link),20 (link),21 (link)} It provides reproducible thrombus weights beginning at 3 hours and extending to 21 days, for most mouse strains. It has proven valuable in the study of interactions between the vein wall and thrombus during the progression from acute to chronic inflammation and remodeling of the vein wall. Disadvantages include the lack of blood flow. A technical pitfall unique to this procedure is the potential to induce initial hypotension. However, compensation by vertebral veins is observed and the survival rate for this model is around 95%, based on our laboratory’s observations. In addition, the IVC cannot reopen because of the ligature. This model cannot reproduce the clinical scenario where a thrombus is nonocclusive, but it can mimic complete occlusion (Figure 2 and Table). As a guideline, data from our laboratories in C57BL/6 mice shows, approximate thrombus weights (IVC+thrombus at harvest), of 33 mg at day 2, 29 mg at day 6, and 18 mg at day 14.

RIETE: Comprehensive VTE Registry

At each participating site, patients are screened by the site investigators and checked for eligibility (Table 1). All patients with objectively confirmed acute symptomatic or asymptomatic VTE (i.e. DVT, PE, or both). More recently, in an attempt to similarly understand the presentation, treatment pattern, and outcomes of other thrombotic conditions, RIETE has also started to enroll patients with superficial vein thrombosis, splanchnic vein thrombosis (i.e. thrombosis involves the mesenteric, splenic, or portal veins), retinal vein thrombosis, and cerebral vein thrombosis. At each participating center, every attempt is made to enroll consecutive patients and RIETE investigators are committed, by contract agreement, to enroll consecutive patients. Periodic audits of the sites have confirmed consecutiveness. Further, comparison against the Spanish Ministry of Health database has shown that patients in RIETE have similar characteristics to the data from all-comers with VTE in that database.(28 (link)) No duplicate entries are permitted and patients who are enrolled in blinded treatment trials are ineligible.
Methods of DVT diagnosis include contrast venography, ultrasonography, magnetic resonance, or rarely in the past, plethysmography (only 172 patients in the entire cohort). PE is diagnosed on the basis of pulmonary angiography, contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the chest (specifically CT pulmonary angiography), lung scintigraphy, or rarely on the basis of confirmed DVT in patients with signs and symptoms of PE.
RIETE, by design, does not currently enroll patients with intracardiac thrombi in the absence of VTE. As of June 30, 2017, a total of 72,107 valid patients with acute VTE have been enrolled in RIETE. Currently, RIETE has 179 participating sites from 24 countries and across 3 continents. There has been a growth, over time, in the number of involved sites and countries (Figure 2, Panels A and B).

Retrospective Analysis of Healthy Brain MRI

This retrospective analysis was approved by the Institutional Review Board at BCH. The clinical imaging database at BCH was retrospectively reviewed for this analysis from 01 January 2008 until 24 February 2016. All MRI examinations that included brain imaging of participants aged 0–32 years at the time of imaging were included for further analysis. Examinations deemed to be of low quality (because of excessive participant motion, large metal artefact from a subject’s dental hardware, lack of a T1 structural imaging volume providing diagnostically useful axial, sagittal, and coronal oriented images, etc.) were excluded from the study. Examinations and medical records that were inaccessible because of technical reasons were excluded. Healthy subjects were retrospectively identified from routine clinical imaging by including subjects with a normal MRI examination as assessed by a BCH radiologist and whose medical records provide no indication of any substantive neurological problems (subjects with any known neurodevelopmental disorder were excluded such as autism, cerebral palsy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, epilepsy, neurofibromatosis, developmental delay, tuberous sclerosis complex, hemiplegia, hallucinations, any brain tumor, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, abnormal psychological factors, meningitis, encephalopathy, postconcussion syndrome, learning disabilities, abnormal EEG examination, paresthesia, Bardet–Biedl syndrome, Waardenburg syndrome, cerebral venous thrombosis, demyelination, etc.). Participants with any type of cancer (including outside the central nervous system) were excluded to avoid neurological data with altered growth trajectories caused by common treatments such as chemotherapy. This yielded 993 examinations (395 male, 598 female) from 988 participants. A joint histogram demonstrating the age distributions for both the male and female healthy participants are provided in Figure 1.

Murine Model of IVC Flow Restriction

Mice were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection as described previously (Massberg et al., 2002 (link)). A median laparotomy was performed and the IVC was exposed by atraumatic surgery. We positioned a space holder (FloppyR II Guide Wire 0.014 in [0.36 mm]; Guidant Corporation) on the outside of the vessel and we placed a permanent narrowing ligature (8.0 monofil polypropylene filament, Premilene; Braun) exactly below the left renal vein. Subsequently, the wire was removed to avoid complete vessel occlusion. Side branches were not ligated or manipulated. Flow velocity was determined immediately after the flow restriction (Cap-Image 7.1). Because we wanted to rule out endothelial injury as a trigger for venous thrombosis, all mice with bleedings or any injury of the IVC during surgery were excluded from further analysis. There was no difference in the exclusion rate across the different experimental groups. After the procedure, a subset of animals was investigated by intravital microscopy. In the remainder, the median laparotomy was immediately sutured by a 7.0 polypropylene suture (Ethicon). For weight measurement, the vessel was excised just below the renal veins and proximal to the confluence of the common iliac veins. After the restriction procedure the blood flow velocity was reduced by ∼80% (Fig. 1 B). The shear stress was 0.144 dyne/cm² ± 0.02 SEM before the flow restriction and 0.072 dyne/cm² ± 0.017 SEM after the procedure in the IVC close to the site of ligation. Sham experiments consisted of preparation of the IVC and placement of the filament under the vessel without ligation.

Tele-ICU System and Staffing Model

Details on on-site ICU physician coverage, the Tele-ICU staffing, and daily tasks of the Tele-ICU team are showed in Fig. 1. The Tele-ICU system (eCareManager® 4.1, Philips, U.S.A) used in the study supports the decision-making process by patient information centralization and real-time physiological severity evaluation based on automatic analysis (Fig. 2). The Tele-ICU staff consists of a board-certified intensivist, specially trained nurses, and a clerical assistant to the doctor. One nurse is responsible for up to 50 patients. A support center nurse is stationed 24/7. Daily Tele-ICU team tasks involve communication with on-site staff and patients using a secured audio–video system on demand and proactive survey of high risk or physiologically worsening patients to prevent unfavorable events. Venous thrombosis prophylaxis, stress ulcer prophylaxis, medication dosing appropriateness such as catecholamines, vasopressor, analgesics and sedatives, recommendation of early mobilization, early enteral feeding, and sepsis management were included in the tasks. Because the role of Tele-ICU is severity evaluation and advice in this study, the Tele-ICU physicians do not order instead of the on-site physician and only record the contents of the consultation. In addition, as the Tele-ICU physicians expertise in respiratory care and lung protective ventilation, they performed scheduled and/or on demand respiratory round. Tele-ICU physicians are given full authority of bed placement and transfer in university hospital ICU.Fig. 1

Diagnostic Criteria for Hepatobiliary Conditions

PSC is progressive biliary fibrosis affecting intra and/or extrahepatic bile ducts[12 (link)] and diagnosed by laboratory tests [(cholestasis, Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)], radiology [abdominal ultrasonography (US), abdominal computed tomography (CT), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP)], and liver biopsy. Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is characterized by the loss of small and medium-sized bile ducts on liver biopsy, elevated anti-mitochondrial antibodies, and altered gamma-glutamyl transferase and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels[13 (link)]. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by fat storage in ≥ 5% of hepatic steatosis in the absence of concomitant liver disease (chronic viral hepatitis), use of steatosis-inducing medications (amiodarone or tamoxifen), autoimmune hepatitis, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, or excessive alcohol consumption[14 (link)]. Diagnosis of NAFLD was made by liver biopsies or US[15 (link)], and the severity score was previously stated[16 (link)]. Autoimmune hepatitis diagnosis based on the International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group criteria with a score of > 15 points consisting of demographic, histologic, and laboratory markers, including antinuclear antibodies with a titer of at least 1:40 and liver histology[17 (link)]. An aseptic liver abscess is diagnosed based on IBD history, US, and CT[18 (link)]. Ultrasound, colour Doppler, and/or CT scans were used to detect portal vein thrombosis.

What are the different types of venous thrombosis?

Venous thrombosis can occur in different parts of the body, with the most common types being deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). DVT typically occurs in the deep veins of the leg, while PE happens when a clot travels to the lungs. There are also rarer forms like cerebral venous thrombosis, which affects the veins in the brain, and portal vein thrombosis, which occurs in the liver. Understanding the specific type of venous thrombosis is important for determining the appropriate treatment approach.

What are some common risk factors for developing venous thrombosis?

There are several risk factors that can increase the likelihood of developing venous thrombosis, such as immobilization, recent surgery, cancer, pregnancy, obesity, smoking, and certain genetic conditions that affect blood clotting. Additionally, older age and a personal or family history of venous thrombosis can also be contributing factors. Recognizing these risk factors is crucial for prevention and early intervention.

What are some common complications associated with venous thrombosis?

Venous thrombosis can lead to several serious complications if left untreated. The most well-known complicatoin is pulmonary embolism, which occurs when a blood clot travels from the leg or pelvis to the lungs. This can be life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention. Other potential complications include post-thrombotic syndrome, which can cause chronic pain, swelling, and skin discoloration in the affected limb. In rare cases, venous thrombosis can also lead to organ damage or stroke if the clot reaches the brain. Prompt diagnosis and effective treatment are crucial to mitigate these potentially devastating consequences.
