OBJECTIVES: To compare the safety and efficacy of oral apixaban with that of injectable enoxaparin after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) thromboprophylaxis.
Anticoagulant drugs are commonly prescribed to prevent hypercoagulable states in patients with venous thromboembolism. The choice of the most efficient anticoagulant and the appropriate dosage regimen remain a complex problem because of the intersubj...
Accumulating studies appear to suggest that the risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) among young-middle-aged inpatients are different from those among elderly people. Therefore, the current prediction models for VTE are not applicable to you...
BACKGROUND: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication of hospitalized trauma patients and has an adverse impact on patient outcomes. However, there is still a lack of appropriate tools for effectively predicting VTE for trauma patients. W...
IMPORTANCE: Anticipating the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) when initiating antithrombotic treatment (oral antiplatelets or anticoagulants) is limited by existing risk prediction models. Machine learning algorithms may result in superior pre...

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to develop and validate machine learning models to predict the personalized risk for 30-day readmission with venous thromboembolism (VTE).
The Khorana score (KS) is used to predict the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) for cancer patients. We sought to assess the association between KS and VTE for patients who underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). We reviewed our pros...
INTRODUCTION: The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with severe hypercoagulability. There is currently limited evidence supporting the routine use of therapeutic anticoagulation in the setting of COVID-19.
BACKGROUND: Postoperative gastrointestinal leak and venous thromboembolism (VTE) are devastating complications of bariatric surgery. The performance of currently available predictive models for these complications remains wanting, while machine learn...
