Abstract:
We discuss four topics among the angiology and hemostasis studies of importance in 2023. The BASIL-2 study provides new data for the management of chronic limb-threatening ischemia by comparing surgical and endovascular treatment. The new classification of antiphospholipid antibody (aPL) syndrome integrates new clinical elements and gives a different weight among the isotype and titer of aPL. Concizumab, an antibody targeting the tissue factor pathway inhibitor, broadens the therapeutic arsenal for hemophilia A and B as evidenced by the results of the EXPLORER 7 study. The PREVENT-CLOT and CASTING study focus on the prevention of thrombosis after trauma, by testing the role of aspirin or the lack of thromboprophylaxis, respectively.

Introduction to Hemostasis
The three phases of hemostasis involve many clotting factors present in plasma and several substances released by platelets and injured tissue cells. It is a fast, localized,...
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which...
