ObjectiveTo summarize the new biomarkers of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and their research progress, so as to provide new ideas for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of DVT. MethodThe literature about biomarkers of DVT in recent 5 years was reviewed and summarized. ResultsAccording to the results of literature review, a variety of common DVT biomarkers such as serum microrna, fibrin monomer, neutrophil capture net, and E-selectin were sorted out, but most of them had not been used in clinical DVT management. At present, the clinical diagnosis of DVT required the combination of positive D-dimer test and positive imaging examination, and there was no single biomarker for the diagnosis of DVT. ConclusionsBiomarkers are valuable in the diagnosis and treatment of DVT, but their sensitivity and specificity need to be optimized. Therefore, finding biomarkers with more diagnostic value is one of the future directions. At the same time, we also can consider fully combined with a variety of existing biomarkers, to improve the efficiency to the diagnosis of DVT.
Objective To evaluate the effect of Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy on arteriovenous graft thrombosis in hemodialysis patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 11 patients who underwent maintaining hemodialysis and arteriovenous graft thrombosis through Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy between March 2010 and November 2014. The thrombosed graft was incised, and a 4 or 6 French catheter was placed in the venous and arterial limbs of the graft respectively. The Fogarty balloon was passed beyond the thrombus and pulled out after saline was infused into the balloon, and the thrombus was taken out. The procedure was considered unsuccessful if the blood flow was not re-established or if the graft re-thrombosed within hours. Results The treatment was successfully performed in all the patients. Of the 11 patients, 3 received balloon dilation due to stenosis of venous anastomosis, and 2 received angioplasty due to underlying arterial anastomosis lesion. After corresponding measures were taken, the thrombus of all the 11 patients were taken out, and blood flow was recovered. Two to seven days after surgery, low molecular weight heparin was used for anti-coagulation. The blood flow of all arteriovenous grafts reached over 250 mL/min. All the patients were followed up for 4 to 30 months. During the follow-up, the arteriovenous graft remained functional in 5 patients; 4 patients had re-thrombosis on day 2, 3, 25, and 71 after surgery respectively; one changed to undergo peritoneal dialysis due to rupture and infection of the graft, and one patient was transferred to another hospital in another area and was not followed up any longer. The therapy was successful in 81.8% of this group of patients. Conclusion Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy is effective in restoring patency of thrombosed arteriovenous graft in hemodialysis patients, and more studies are needed.

Objective To investigate the risk factors, prevention and therapy of hepatic artery thrombosis after liver transplantation. Methods The literatures on the risk factors, prevention and therapy of hepatic artery thrombosis after liver transplantation in recent years were collected and reviewed. Results The risk factors include factor Ⅴ Leiden, metabolic liver diseases of recipients, recipient sex, the use of Roux-en-Y biliary reconstructions, virus infection and so on. The measures of prevention and therapy include early diagnosis, detection of activated protein C resistance, postoperative anti-coagulation therapy, liver arteries reconstructions measures, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, continuous transcatheter arterial thrombolysis, liver retransplantation and so on. Conclusion The study of risk factors, prevention and therapy will promote the process of improving the prognosis of patients with liver transplantation.
ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence of perioperative deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremities and its risk factors in elderly patients with femoral neck fracture. Methods The clinical data of 4 109 elderly patients with femoral neck fracture admitted between August 2012 and November 2020 and met the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, there were 1 137 males and 2 972 females; their ages ranged from 65 to 101 years, with an average of 77.0 years. The time from fracture to admission ranged from 1 to 360 hours, with an average of 35.2 hours. There were 1 858 cases of hemiarthroplasty, 1 617 cases of total hip arthroplasty, and 634 cases of internal fixation surgery. The preoperative age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (aCCI) was 4 (3, 5). Perioperative DVT occurred in 857 cases (20.9%). Univariate analysis was performed on age, gender, body mass index, fracture side, time from fracture to admission, operation type, anesthesia type, blood transfusion, blood pressure after admission, and preoperative aCCI in patients with and without perioperative DVT, and logistic regression analysis was used to screen the risk factors of perioperative DVT in elderly patients with femoral neck fracture. ResultsUnivariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age, gender, time from fracture to admission, operation type, and preoperative aCCI between the two groups (P<0.05). Further logistic regression analysis showed that age>75 years, female patients, time from fracture to admission>24 hours, and preoperative aCCI>5 were risk factors for perioperative DVT (P<0.05). Conclusion Elderly patients with femoral neck fracture have a higher incidence of perioperative DVT. The advanced aged and female patients, patients with longer fracture time and more comorbidities need to pay special attention to the prevention of perioperative DVT to minimize the occurrence of DVT during femoral neck fractures.
The way of intravenous drug abuse is to puncture the peripheral blood vessels and inject the drug directly into the blood. Therefore, this method has an impact on the peripheral artery and venous system of the users, and can cause a variety of peripheral vascular diseases, such as phlebitis, deep vein thrombosis, chronic venous insufficiency, phlebangioma, atherosclerosis, acute arterial ischemia, pseudoaneurysm, etc. However, due to the particularity of drug abusers, the vascular complications caused by intravenous drug abuse have not attracted enough attention. This paper reviewed the types and pathogenesis of peripheral vascular diseases caused by intravenous drug abuse, so as to improve the clinical understanding of peripheral vascular diseases caused by intravenous drug abuse, improve the prognosis of patients, reduce occupational exposure of medical staff, and play a certain role in social warning.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) versus anti-coagulation (AC) for deep vein thrombosis (DVT). MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, WanFang Data and CNKI databases to collect randomized clinical trials (RCTs) about CDT versus AC for DVT from inception to March 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 5 RCTs and 989 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the two group in incidence of post-thrombotic syndrome (RR=0.73, 95%CI 0.49 to 1.09, P=0.13), iliofemoral venous patency rate (RR=2.57, 95%CI 0.59 to 11.24, P=0.21), bleeding (RR=2.03, 95%CI 0.50 to 8.28, P=0.32), severe bleeding (RR=1.77, 95%CI 0.91 to 3.42, P=0.09) and recurrence rate of venous thromboembolism (RR=1.00, 95%CI 0.42 to 2.36, P=0.99). However, the incidence of moderate-severe PTS decreased in CDT group was lower than that in the control group (RR=0.70, 95%CI 0.53 to 0.92, P=0.01). ConclusionsCompared with the control group, catheter-directed thrombolysis does not reduce the incidence of PTS and VTE recurrence rate, cannot improve the long-term patency of the iliofemoral vein, yet can prevent the occurrence of moderate to severe PTS. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
