ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of low molecular weight heparin on community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). MethodsA total of 78 patients with CAP admitted to hospital between January 2013 and March 2015 were randomly assigned into a conventional treatment group and a heparin treatment group. Both groups received anti-infection and symptomatic treatment, and the patients in heparin treatment group additionally received low molecular weight heparin by abdominal subcutaneous injection once daily for a course with seven days. The age, sex and severity of the disease were recorded. White blood cell (WBC) count and the levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were measured on and during admission. ResultsThe baseline information including age and sex, severity of illness, CRP, ESR and WBC counts on admission and the first treatment day had no difference between two groups (P > 0.05). CRP and ESR on day 3 after treatment and WBC counts on day 7 after treatment in the heparin treatment group were significantly more decreased than those in the conventional treatment group (P < 0.05). For the moderate and severe CAP patients, the level of CRP on day 3 after treatment and WBC counts on day 7 after treatment in the heparin treatment group were significant lower than those in the conventional treatment group (P < 0.05). ConclusionCombination therapy of low molecular weight heparin may improve the clinical efficacy of CAP.

ObjectiveTo evaluate efficacy and safety of early anticoagulation therapy with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) in prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD).MethodsThe patients who received PD in our hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were collected retrospectively, then were divided into the anticoagulant group and the non-anticoagulant group. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, tumor property, coagulation function indexes such as prothrombin time (PT), PT activity (PTA), fibrinogen (FIB), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), and D-dimer (DD), platelet (PLT), VTE, bleeding related complications etc. were compared between the two groups.ResultsA total of 103 patients underwent PD were included in this study, including 52 patients in the anticoagulant group and 51 patients in the non-anticoagulant group. There were no significant differences in the baseline data such as the gender, age, and preoperative coagulation function indexes, etc. between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of VTE in the anticoagulant group was lower than that in the non-anticoagulant group (13.5% versus 47.1%, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of bleeding between the anticoagulant group and the non-anticoagulant group (9.6% versus 7.8%, P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the coagulation indexes between the two groups before operation and day 1 after operation (P>0.05). On day 8 after operation, the FIB and DD values of the anticoagulant group were significantly lower than those of the non-anticoagulant group (P values were 0.040 and 0.002, respectively). A comparison of different phases in the same group on coagulation indexes between day 8 and day 1 after surgery showed that there were statistically significant differences (P<0.05), the changes of all indexes were within the normal range.ConclusionThe results of this study indicate that LMWH administered at 24 h after PD could decrease incidence of VTE and don’t increase risk of bleeding.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of different low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) for prevention of thromboembolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).MethodsPubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on efficacy and safety of different low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) in preventing thrombotic diseases in patients with atrial fibrillation from inception to March 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies; then, meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 16.0 software.ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 7 400 patients who were treated with enoxaparin, dalteparin, or tinzaparin to prevent thromboembolic events were included. The results of network meta-analysis showed that: in patients with AF and perioperative AF patients, there were no statistical differences in the incidence of stroke, TIA, major bleeding, minor bleeding, and all-cause mortality caused by dalteparin, enoxaparin, and tinzaparin. Furthermore, the surface under the cumulative ranking area (SUCRA) showed that enoxaparin was superior for prevention of stroke and TIA than dalteparin and tinzaparin. As for major bleeding, minor bleeding, and all-cause death, dalteparin treatment was superior than enoxaparin.ConclusionsCurrent evidence showed enoxaparin to be a viable option for high ischemic risk AF patients requiring LWMH treatment, while dalteparin to be a viable option for those with bleeding high risk. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
Objectives To explore the characteristics of thrombosis in critically ill patients with Omicron infection and the therapeutic value of prophylactic low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) treatment. MethodsA single center, retrospective cohort study included critically ill adult patients with Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 admitted to Peking University Third Hospital from December 7, 2022, to February 8, 2023. The patients were categorized into two groups based prophylactic LMWH. Propensity score (PS) matching was used to match patients (1: 1 ratio) based on the predefined criteria. General clinical information and laboratory parameters were compared. This study was retrospectively registered at Chinese Clinical Trail Registry (ChiCTR2300067434). ResultsFour hundred and fifty-two patients and 360 patients were included before and after PS matching. There were no statistical differences in mortality, the incidence of pulmonary embolism, arterial thrombosis or bleeding between the anticoagulation group and non-coagulation group before and after PS matching. There were 91 thrombotic events in 82 patients (18.14%), of which 54 cases (59.34%) were lower limb intermuscular vein thrombosis, 3 cases (3.30%) were pulmonary embolism, 14 cases (15.38%) were acute myocardial infarction and 3 cases (3.30%) were acute cerebral infarction. The thrombotic event resulted in the death of 5 patients. D-dimer increased in 385 cases (85.56%). On the 1st, 3rd, 6th and 9th day, the concentration of D-dimer in the anticoagulant group was higher than that in the non-anticoagulant group (P=0.006, 0.001, 0.024 and 0.006, respectively). ConclusionsAlthough thrombosis and coagulation disorders are still common complications of COVID-19, it is not the direct cause of most death in COVID-19 patients caused by Omicron. The role of prophylactic anticoagulation treatment for Omicron-infected patients needs further study.
ObjectiveTo explore the concentration of the plasma homocysteine (Hcy) and the relationship with TOAST subtypes in patients with acute cerebral infarction. MethodsA total of 120 patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) treated from April 2012 to April 2013 were enrolled into the ACI group.They were classified with Korean TOAST classification as five subtypes:atherothrombosis (AT) type,small artery disease (SAD) type,cardioembolism (CE) type,stroke of other disease (SOD) type,and stroke of undetermined etiology (SUE) type.The plasma Hcy concentrations in each group and in 60 heathy people who were selected into the control group were measured.Furthermore,the relationship between plasma Hcy concentration and their subtypes were analyzed. ResultsThe plasma Hcy level in ACI group was significant higher than that in the control group (P<0.01).The levels of plasma Hcy were much higher in patients with AT,SAD,SOD,and CE than those in the control groups (P<0.01).In different subtypes,AT and SAD subtypes had higher homocysteine concentration than SUD and CE subtypes did.The concentration of Hcy in AT and SAD group had no significant difference. ConclusionACI is related to hyperhomocysteinemia.The plasma Hcy level varies with different TOAST subtypes of ACI,specially elevating in the subtypes of AT and SAD,which may indicate that hyperhomocysteinemia may increase stroke risk through proatherogenic effect and endothelial dysfunction.
Objective To analyze the impact of ivaroxaban on hidden blood loss and blood transfusion rate after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) by comparing with the use of low molecular weight heparin. Methods Between December 2009 and January 2011, the clinical data from 90 patients undergoing primary TKA were retrospectively analyzed. At 12 hours after operation, 45 patients were given ivaroxaban (10 mg/d) in the trial group and low molecular weight heparin injection (0.4 mL/d) in the control group for 14 days, respectively. There was no significant difference in gender, age, disease duration, or range of motion between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results The operation time was (92.32 ± 23.13) minutes in the trial group and (89.81 ± 18.65) minutes in the control group, showing no significant difference (t=0.26, P=0.79). The hidden blood loss was (40.18 ± 14.85) g/L in the trial group and (34.04 ± 12.96) g/L in the control group, showing significant difference (t=2.09, P=0.00); the dominant blood loss was (30.60 ± 2.89) g/L and (28.85 ± 8.10) g/L respectively, showing no significant difference (t= 1.37, P=0.17). The blood transfusion rate was 73.33% (33/45) in the trial group and 55.56% (25/45) in the control group, showing no sigificant difference (χ2=3.10, P=0.08); the transfusion volume was (1.44 ± 1.09) U and (1.06 ± 1.17) U respectively, showing no significant difference (t=1.58, P=0.11). Stress ulcer occurred in 1 case of the trial group; symptomatic deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity and asymptomatic muscular venous thrombosis developed in 1 case and 4 cases of the control group respectively. Conclusion Ivaroxaban has effect on the hidden blood loss after primary TKA, which may increase postoperative blood loss and blood transfusion rate. The changes in hemoglobin should be monitored during the anticoagulant therapy, and the blood volume should be added promptly.
