Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), encompassing deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite significant advances in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, VTE continues to present major clinical challenges. In recent years, the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), the development of individualized risk assessment tools, and advances in imaging techniques have substantially reshaped the management landscape. Moreover, the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms is emerging as a promising approach to enhance prediction, diagnosis, and clinical decision making in VTE. Nevertheless, unresolved questions persist, including the optimal duration of anticoagulation, strategies for recurrence risk stratification, bleeding risk mitigation, and the management of special populations such as the elderly, pregnant individuals, or patients with thrombosis in unusual locations.
This Special Issue aims to provide an updated overview of current evidence and emerging research in the management of VTE, with a focus on advances in pharmacologic therapies, predictive models—including AI-driven tools—and personalized approaches. We welcome original research articles, clinical studies, systematic reviews, and expert commentaries addressing clinical decision making, biomarkers, prevention strategies, and novel therapeutic interventions. Contributions from multidisciplinary perspectives are strongly encouraged to foster a comprehensive understanding of this complex and evolving field.
