“…Hence, we speculate that RVT is the result of a systemic state, which could involve hypercoagulability and/or inflammatory conditions. [21][22][23][24] Exploratory studies are needed to elucidate the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism behind the association.…”

“…The presence of PTS was assessed at predefined times (6,12,18,24, and 36 months) after the acute episode, using the Villalta scale, 5 The presence of five leg symptoms (i.e., pain, cramps, heaviness, pruritus, and paresthesia) and six objective signs (i.e., pretibial edema, induration of the skin, hyperpigmentation, new venous ectasia, redness, and pain during calf compression) was scored. For each item, a score of 0 (not present) up to 3 (most severe) was assigned, using the contralateral unaffected leg as reference.…”

“…Additionally, adhesive properties of neutrophils remained high in patients with RVO and high levels of D-dimer one to six years after VTE compared to patients without RVO and normal levels of D-dimer or controls without VTE. Interestingly, there was no difference in the number of neutrophils between PTE patients and controls at this time (i.e., one to six years after PTE) and 10 days after PTE [20,46]. Moreover, a post-mortem study on the RV samples from people who died due to PTE shows presence of neutrophils in most of the samples [47].…”

“…Proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8, are considerably elevated in patients with residual vein occlusion (RVO) with high levels of D-dimer (months to years after occurrence of VTE) compared to patients without RVO with normal levels of D-dimer and controls without VTE [20,21]. Regardless of the levels of D-dimer, VTE patients have higher levels of TNF-α and IL-6 than controls without VTE, even after discontinuation of anti-coagulant therapy [21,22].…”

“…In patients with acute ischemic stroke, there was significant up-regulation of neutrophil Mac-1 immediately after the event, and persisting into the subacute phase of the stroke (41). In patients with venous thromboembolism, increased adhesive potential of neutrophils was associated with a higher rate of recurrence (42). As indicated in Supplementary Table 1 (http://onlin elibr ary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/art.41057/ abstract), the average time from last thrombotic event to blood collection for patients with APS included in this study was approximately 4.5 years.…”
