Computational analysis of flow structures in turbulent ventricular blood flow associated with mitral valve intervention [PDF]
Cardiac disease and clinical intervention may both lead to an increased risk for thrombosis events due to modified blood flow in the heart, and thereby a change in the mechanical stimuli of blood cells passing through the chambers of the heart. Specifically, the degree of platelet activation is influenced by the level and type of mechanical stresses in

Factor V Leiden and thrombosis in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: a meta-analysis. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of the association between the factor V Leiden polymorphism (FVL) and thrombosis among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and/or antiphospholipid antibody (aPL) positivity.

Gut Microbiota Promote Angiotensin II–Induced Arterial Hypertension and Vascular Dysfunction
Background The gut microbiome is essential for physiological host responses and development of immune functions. The impact of gut microbiota on blood pressure and systemic vascular function, processes that are determined by immune cell function, is ...

Cancer patients’ experiences of living with venous thromboembolism: A systematic review and qualitative thematic synthesis [PDF]
Background: Cancer-Associated thrombosis is common. Recommended treatment is daily injected low-molecular-weight heparin for 6months. Most studies focus on prophylaxis and treatment; few have explored patients’ experience.

Vascular complications after liver transplantation: A 5-year experience [PDF]
During the past 5 years, 104 angiographic studies were performed in 87 patients (45 children and 42 adults) with 92 transplanted livers for evaluation of possible vascular complications. Seventy percent of the studies were abnormal.

Uncertainty quantification of a thrombosis model considering the clotting assay PFA-100 [PDF]
Mathematical models of thrombosis are currently used to study clinical scenarios of pathological thrombus formation. Most of these models involve inherent uncertainties that must be assessed to increase the confidence in model predictions and identify avenues of improvement for both thrombosis modeling and anti-platelet therapies.
