In this study, 86% of pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 received timely thromboprophylaxis based on their sepsis-induced coagulopathy scores, with most scoring between one and two.

A woman had a delayed allergic reaction to the blood thinner enoxaparin, treated with a steroid cream.

This review revisits hair-thread tourniquet syndrome, highlighting the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment by removing the constricting hair or similar substance to prevent damage to affected body parts, aiming to raise healthcare professionals' awareness for better prevention and management.

This review discusses Toe Tourniquet Syndrome, a frequently misdiagnosed condition that can lead to necrosis if untreated, and calls for increased clinician awareness, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that combined hormonal contraceptives containing desogestrel, drospirenone, or cyproterone acetate were associated with a higher risk of venous thromboembolism compared to those containing levonorgestrel.

The authors report a case of cerebral venous thrombosis induced by finasteride use without other triggering factors.

This case report documents the first known instance of heparin necrosis linked to tinazaparin, indicating that low-molecular-weight heparin may still cause serious side effects like conventional heparin.

Results are not reported for this abstract, which mentions that patients on antithrombotic therapy, important for preventing cardiovascular events, sometimes seek hair transplantation at the clinic.

In patients with alopecia areata, this study found elevated levels of venous thromboembolism markers SFMC and F1 + 2 compared to healthy controls, potentially indicating an increased risk for this condition.

The authors concluded that coagulopathy can result from vitamin E supplementation, even at marginally elevated levels, especially when combined with other drugs that increase bleeding risk.

In this retrospective case-control study, researchers reported that patients with alopecia areata had significantly increased odds of venous thromboembolism compared to matched controls, suggesting a potential association between alopecia areata and risk of VTE.

This study highlights the importance of recognizing tourniquet syndrome in children, particularly caused by hair or threads, as it can lead to serious complications like necrosis if not swiftly addressed.

Finasteride can cause low platelet count in rare cases.

This study found that a short-term treatment with all-trans retinoic acid may effectively stabilize platelet counts in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients experiencing fluctuations during thrombopoietin receptor agonist therapy.

Low vitamin C caused bleeding and corkscrew hair, resolved with vitamin C treatment.

Some birth control pills increase blood clot risk; use them for specific conditions only.

This study found that replenishment of iron stores after phlebotomy-induced remission in porphyria cutanea tarda led to biochemical relapse, suggesting that reducing iron stores may be crucial for maintaining remission.

This study found that critically ill pulmonary patients with deficiency syndrome were at a higher risk of developing type 2 myocardial infarction than those with phlegm syndrome.

This case study suggests that thrombosis was related to anti-phospholipid antibody in a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus, characterized by multiple aseptic bone necroses and arterial blockages.

This case report observed that a child developed thrombocytopenia, characterized by a low platelet count and prolonged bleeding time, while on sodium valproate monotherapy for seizures.

This review discusses hypersensitivity reactions to anticoagulants like ASA and heparins, highlighting their rare but potentially life-threatening nature, and emphasizes the need for meticulous allergy testing to find safe alternatives.

This study developed a simple method to prepare highly concentrated, resting platelet-rich plasma suitable for cell therapy, effectively preventing clotting while maintaining platelet reactivity and minimizing hemorrhage risk.

This article reviews hair-thread tourniquet syndrome, discussing its demographics, causes, and current treatment methods, but presents no new clinical findings.

This case report illustrates the risk of skin necrosis in patients with high antiphospholipid antibody levels after stopping anticoagulation therapy, highlighting the necessity for careful monitoring.

Women with premature ovarian insufficiency have a worse cardiovascular risk profile than premenopausal women.

This study found that using hemocoagulase combined with platelet-rich plasma during total hip replacement surgery led to reduced perioperative blood loss and improved early joint range of motion in osteoarthritis patients.

This report highlights a preterm newborn with hair-thread tourniquet syndrome affecting multiple toes, emphasizing the importance of early identification and removal to prevent severe complications.

This study found that hypogonadism in men can be a reversible risk factor for torsades de pointes (TdP), with testosterone replacement potentially preventing TdP recurrence.

This article reviews cultural differences in the incidence of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome and finds it may be less prevalent in Iranian children compared to Europe, possibly due to social and cultural factors.

This study found that non-bleeding adverse events associated with NOACs affect multiple organ systems, emphasizing the importance of clinical vigilance. Specific NOACs like dabigatran, apixaban, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban were linked to distinct adverse reactions, including metabolic imbalances, thyroid disorders, and menstrual irregularities.
