In this retrospective, observational study, we included all hospitalized AAV patients from Jan 2013 to Apr 2022 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. We collected their clinical data for multivariate regression analysis to determine the risk factors for thrombosis. The nomogram was constructed by applying these risk factors to predict thrombosis in AAV patients.

Multivariate regression suggested that older than 65 years, EGPA, neurological involvement, lung involvement, significantly elevated serum creatinine (> 500µmol/L), and elevated D-dimer were associated with thrombosis in AAV patients. The model demonstrated satisfied discrimination with an AUC of 0.769 (95% CI, 0.726–0.812).

The objectives of this study were to investigate CTR in trough and peak samples during Rivaroxaban treatment of atrial fibrillation and to correlate the findings to bleeding episodes. 3 trough- and 3 peak samples from 60 patients (30 on 20 mg daily and 30 on 15 mg daily) were analyzed with PT DOAC.

The optimal oral anticoagulation therapy for resolving LVT has been under intense debate.

Evidence supporting the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the management of LVT continues to grow. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of DOACs versus VKAs. A comprehensive literature search was carried out in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus databases in July 2023. The efficacy outcomes of this study were thrombus resolution, ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, stroke/systemic embolism, all-cause mortality, and adverse cardiovascular events. The safety outcomes were any bleeding, major bleeding, and intracranial hemorrhage. A total of twenty-seven eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. Data were analyzed utilizing Stata software version 15.1. There was no significant difference between DOACs and VKAs with regard to LVT resolution (RR = 1.00, 95% CI 0.95–1.05, P = 0.99). In the overall analysis, DOACs significantly reduced the risk of stroke (RR = 0.74, 95% CI 0.57–0.96, P = 0.021), all-cause mortality (RR = 0.70, 95% CI 0.57–0.86, P = 0.001), any bleeding (RR = 0.75, 95% CI 0.61–0.92, P = 0.006) and major bleeding (RR = 0.67, 95% CI 0.52–0.85, P = 0.001) when compared to VKAs.
