Clinical significance of coagulation biomarkers in venous pressure therapy for preventing lower-extremity deep venous thromboembolism: A meta-analysis
Jingrong Niu, Shuang Zhou, Lijin Zhang, Chunmin Li, Hualiang Ren
TL;DR
Venous pressure therapy helps prevent blood clots by improving coagulation markers and blood flow, as shown in a meta-analysis of clinical studies.
Contribution
This study demonstrates that venous pressure therapy modulates key coagulation biomarkers, offering a novel clinical approach for thrombosis prevention.
Findings
Venous pressure therapy significantly reduced fibrinogen and D-dimer levels.
The therapy prolonged APTT, PT, and TT, indicating improved anticoagulant activity.
Improved venous blood flow velocity correlates with reduced thrombosis risk.
Abstract
To evaluate the biochemical and clinical significance of venous pressure therapy in preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) through analysis of coagulation and fibrinolysis biomarkers, including fibrinogen (FIB), D-dimer (D-D), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). Randomized controlled trials published between 2013 and 2025 were systematically retrieved from PubMed, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang databases. Eligible studies investigated venous pressure therapy and reported coagulation-related indices. Pooled effect sizes were calculated for key biochemical markers (FIB, D-D, APTT, PT, TT) and venous hemodynamic outcomes. Nineteen clinical studies met inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis revealed that venous pressure therapy significantly reduced plasma FIB and D-D levels, prolonged APTT, prothrombin time (PT), and thrombin time (TT), and improved venous blood flow velocity. These…
