While breast cancer is not traditionally classified among the most thrombogenic malignancies, accumulating evidence suggests that tumor biology, treatment modalities, and systemic inflammation can collectively heighten thrombotic risk. This has led to a growing interest in the concept of <i>thromboinflammation</i>, wherein the coagulation cascade and inflammatory responses are intricately linked, creating a prothrombotic and tumor-supportive environment. At the molecular level, breast cancer cells and associated stromal elements contribute to a hypercoagulable state through increased expression of tissue factor (TF), release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and production of TF-bearing extracellular vesicles. Furthermore, components of the innate immune system, particularly neutrophils, promote thrombosis via the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). These mechanisms not only facilitate clot formation but also enhance cancer progression, metastasis, and resistance to therapy. Certain aggressive breast cancer subtypes, including triple-negative and HER2-positive tumors, demonstrate heightened thromboinflammatory activity.</p>","PeriodicalId":8025,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medicine and Surgery","volume":"87 9","pages":"5822-5828"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12401306/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144991355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notably, studies demonstrate enhanced outcomes in PFPS patients with bilateral symptoms, as well as in specific populations such as overweight/obese individuals.

Additionally, isokinetic protocols show promise in addressing impaired proprioception and neuromuscular control, particularly in patients with overexertion-related symptoms.

Our registry study aimed to compare postoperative and follow-up data between patients who underwent isolated coronary artery surgery with preoperative chronic dialysis and patients with preoperative severe renal impairment who did not require chronic dialysis.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We analyzed 157 948 consecutive adult patients in the Polish National Registry of Cardiac Surgical Procedures (KROK Registry) scheduled for isolated coronary artery surgery between January 2010 and December 2023. Overall, in this cohort, 938 patients underwent chronic dialysis (CD group), and 13 253 patients had severe renal impairment but did not undergo CD (serious renal impairment [SRI] group). Patients in these groups constituted 0.6% and 8.4% of the entire population, respectively. Preoperative data, major postoperative complications, hospital mortality, and mid-term all-cause mortality were compared among patients in CD group and SRI group.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Mean age of patients CD group and SRI group was 63.3 ± 9.5 vs. 71.9 ± 8.4 years, respectively (<i>P</i> < 0.001), while the mean EuroSCORE II score in these groups was 4.85% ± 7.03% vs. 5.82% ± 7.76%, respectively (<i>P</i> < 0.001). In-hospital mortality among patients in the CD and SRI groups were 10.9% and 6.3%, respectively (<i>P</i> < 0.001). Patients with preoperative CD had more frequent respiratory complications and reoperations for bleeding. The long-term mortality was also significantly higher in CD group (<i>P</i> < 0.001).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Patients with CD had higher in-hospital and long-term mortality rates than those with a preoperative SRI. It is possible that the EuroSCORE II underestimates the risk of coronary bypass grafting in a group of patients with chronic dialysis. It is possible that the coagulation disorders may play role in the higher mortality rates in patients undergoing chronic dialysis.</p>","PeriodicalId":8025,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medicine and Surgery","volume":"87 8","pages":"4728-4734"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12333711/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144815611","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
