This study looked at how often cancer patients develop dangerous blood clots, especially those who also have bleeding problems or take blood thinners. Researchers followed 700 hospitalized cancer patients to track clot rates and understand risk factors. The goal was to gather inf…

This study tested whether a newer diabetes drug (sotagliflozin) is better at reducing blood clots than an older one (empagliflozin) in 17 healthy volunteers. Each person took both drugs at different times, and researchers measured clot formation using special lab tests. The goal …

This study looked at whether using softer, more flexible materials for intravenous catheters (cannulas) can reduce irritation and damage to veins. 27 healthy adults each had two catheters placed in opposite arms—one standard and one more flexible—and were monitored for up to 72 h…

This study looked at 100 people who recently had a major heart attack to better understand blood clots that can form in the heart. Using a special PET/MR scan, researchers tracked clot activity in the heart and brain. The goal was to learn how these clots develop and resolve, whi…
