  • Epi 15 - Cold-Induced Vascular Challenges
    Jan 9 2026
    Thrombosis, Cardiovascular Risks, and Raynaud’s Phenomenon
    This episode centers on cold-induced vasoconstriction, a natural response where blood vessels constrict to preserve body heat. While this mechanism is protective, it can significantly raise the risk of thrombosis and vascular disorders, especially in individuals with pre-existing conditions.

    Winter is a critical period for vascular health. In fact, low temperatures trigger vasoconstriction, which, combined with increased platelet adhesion and reduced physical activity, heightens clot risk. The most strongly impacted pathology by cold-induced vasoconstriction is vascular disease. This deterioration occurs because constricted vessels raise blood pressure, slow circulation, limit tissue perfusion, and increase the likelihood of clot formation.

  • Epi 14 - Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis
    Jan 7 2026
    In this episode, we highlight Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis, a rare but significant subset of venous thromboembolism characterized by clot formation in the veins draining abdominal organs.
    Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis represents a heterogeneous group of disorders affecting the portal, mesenteric, splenic, and hepatic veins. While commonly linked to liver cirrhosis and malignancy, Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis can also occur in non-cirrhotic, non-neoplastic patients. Its clinical relevance stems from complications such as intestinal ischemia, portal hypertension, and potential underlying systemic disorders, including malignancies, nephrotic syndrome, thrombophilia, or inflammatory diseases.

  • Epi 13 - Travel Tips and Thrombosis
    Jan 5 2026
    Although the likelihood of developing thrombosis on flights exceeding four hours is relatively low—about 1 in 6,000—certain factors such as age, obesity, or recent surgery can increase susceptibility. Fortunately, these 10 practical tips can help minimize the risk while traveling.
