Microvascular thrombosis refers to the formation of blood clots in the small blood vessels, also known as microvessels, throughout the body. This condition can lead to blockages in these vessels, impairing blood flow and causing tissue damage or organ dysfunction. Microvascular thrombosis is associated with a variety of medical conditions, including sepsis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), and certain autoimmune disorders. Research in this area focuses on understanding the mechanisms underlying microvascular thrombosis, developing effective diagnostic tools, and exploring novel therapies to prevent or treat the condition. Studies may also investigate the role of inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and other factors in the development of microvascular thrombosis.
