Superficial Vein Thrombosis
Newly Diagnosed Patients
September 16, 2025
In this review, blood clot size (> 5 centimeters) and location (<3 centimeters from a deep vein) matters. This directs the treatment choice of anticoagulation (fondaparinux, rivaroxaban) versus conservative management (warm compresses, ibuprofen, compression stockings).

What is a Polygenic Risk Score (PGS) and why does it matter in lung cancer?
Newly Diagnosed Patients
August 26, 2025
A polygenic risk score is like a “genetic fingerprint” built from thousands of small DNA variations (SNPs). Each variant adds a tiny bit of risk, but when combined, they provide a powerful measure of a person’s inherited predisposition to certain diseases — including blood clots (venous thromboembolism, VTE).
