On page 9, there are errors in the legend to Figure 6. The figure title should read “Transcriptomic analysis of arterial thrombus compared with venous thrombus” rather than “Transcriptomic analysis of arterial thrombus from different vascular beds.” The sentence “RNA was extracted, and the expression of genes involved in inflammation and fibrosis was determined in arterial thrombus extracted from patients with infrarenal AAA (n = 6) at the time of surgical repair or from the brain following acute thrombotic stroke (n = 5) at the time of catheter thrombectomy” should read “RNA was extracted and expression of genes involved in inflammation and fibrosis was determined in arterial thrombus extracted from patients with thrombotic stroke (n = 6 cerebrovascular arterial thrombus) or venous thrombus (n = 10; n = 5 PE and n = 5 DVT) at the time of catheter thrombectomy.” The description of Figure 6C, “Cellular and biochemical processes increased or decreased in aortic thrombus with respect to brain thrombus,” should read “Cellular and biochemical processes increased or decreased in arterial thrombus with respect to venous thrombus.” The full corrected legend is shown below.
Figure 6.Transcriptomic analysis of arterial thrombus compared with venous thrombus. RNA was extracted and expression of genes involved in inflammation and fibrosis was determined in arterial thrombus extracted from patients with thrombotic stroke (n = 6 cerebrovascular arterial thrombus) or venous thrombus (n = 10; n = 5 PE and n = 5 DVT) at the time of catheter thrombectomy. (A) Heat map and (B) volcano plot and Gene Ontology analysis for biological pathways in the thrombus. (C) Cellular and biochemical processes increased or decreased in arterial thrombus with respect to venous thrombus. FC, fold change.
