Welcome to the latest of our Eberhard F Mammen award announcements. As noted in previous editorials ([Table 1]), Thieme, the publisher of Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis (STH), has created the “Eberhard F Mammen Excellence in Thrombosis and Hemostasis Awards” in honor of Eberhard Mammen ([Fig. 1]), and in recognition of his contribution to this field and to the journal that he both founded and steered for over three decades. These awards began in 2009, under two categories, “Most Popular Article Awards” and “Young Investigator Awards.” Accordingly, 2025 represents 17 years of award presentations ([Table 1]). Current details and conditions of the award can be summarized as:

Most popular article awards: Awarded to the authors of the most popular articles published in STH in the preceding 2 years as captured in the preceding year. The awards are determined by the Editor in Chief on the basis of user statistics from the publisher Thieme e-Journals. Prefaces, Errata, Letters to the Editor, Editorials, Commentaries, and previous award-winning articles are excluded from further consideration of these awards, which currently comprise two categories: one for “Free Access” articles, and another for a “General Category.” There are two major cash prizes of US$1,000 for each category. In addition, winners of the “General Category” awards are granted “Free Access” status for these articles thereafter.
Young investigator awards: Best presentation or meeting abstract by a young investigator—as presented or delivered to an international or large regional meeting on a topic related to the fields of thrombosis and hemostasis, and whose subject matter is determined to be in the spirit of Dr Mammen. Up to six cash prizes of US$1,000 in any year. There are some additional considerations and conditions for the award, and awardees are expected to prepare a review or other paper related to the topic of their presentation (or as otherwise agreed) for publication in STH. Previous award winners are excluded from a second award to enable more individuals to be recognized. After nominations are received, the awardees are selected by a vote of the Senior Editors of STH. Any potential conflicts of interest are managed by first identifying these, and then excluding those with potential conflicts from voting. Finally, given historical coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) concerns, some meetings are still held as virtual or hybrid meetings, and accordingly, these meeting presentations can also be considered for the award.

Further details of the awards and the award winners are posted online (<https://www.thieme-connect.com/products/ejournals/journal/10.1055/s-00000077>), and previous award winner announcements are also available in print ([Table 1]).

It is therefore with great pleasure that we would like to announce the latest winners of the 2025 Eberhard F Mammen awards for the most popular articles from STH, as downloaded in 2024 and as published in the period of 2023 to 2024 inclusive.

2025 “Most Popular” Article Awards

As mentioned, the Most Popular awards are given to the authors of the most popular articles published in STH as determined on the basis of user statistics from the publisher of this journal and covering the preceding 2-year publication period, as captured in the preceding year. Thus, the 2025 “Most Popular” awards are granted to the most popular papers, as downloaded in 2024, and as published in the years 2023 to 2024 inclusive. Previous Eberhard F Mammen award-winning articles are listed in [Table 2]. These articles are currently freely available online (<https://www.thieme-connect.com/products/ejournals/journal/10.1055/s-00000077>), and no longer qualify for future awards, although some will continue to appear in the most popular download statistics provided by the publisher.

^a “Free access” category (first created in 2015).

^b This paper qualified as a “Most Popular” award winner based on objective publisher-provided download data; however, as this paper was co-written by the journal Editor in Chief, there was an obvious conflict of interest, and the award was officially declined. This paper is listed here merely as a statement of record.

^c This paper also qualified as a “Most Popular” award winner based on objective publisher-provided download data; however, as this paper was co-written by the journal Editor in Chief, there was a similar conflict of interest, and the monetary award was officially declined. This paper is again listed here merely as a statement of record.

^d This paper also qualified as a “Most Popular” award winner based on objective publisher-provided download data; however, Professor Iba indicated that as he previously won an award (in 2021), and since he had recently joined the STH Editorial Board, that he would decline the cash prize, and asked to pay this cash prize forward to enable another awardee, for which the publisher agreed (hence three awarded papers for this category in 2024).

There is also an increasingly recognized trend to publish articles under an open-access model, and these, as well as other freely available articles, will therefore have an “inequitable advantage” over other “nonopen access/nonfreely available” articles in terms of potential for downloads or perceived popularity due to their free accessibility. Accordingly, the publisher of STH has established separate categories of the Most Popular Award for “free access” papers (including open access) and an alternate “General Category” (nonfree access). Consequently, the most popular papers from each category are identified separately. [Tables 3] and [4] respectively list the top 30 downloaded articles from STH in 2024 (from 2023 and 2024 inclusive), as eligible for either the “free access” ([Table 3])[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] or “general category” ([Table 4])[31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50] [51] [52] [53] [54] [55] [56] [57] [58] [59] [60] awards.

^a 2023–2024 inclusive, as downloaded in 2024. Ranking is according to download data provided by journal publisher, and excludes nonqualifying material (e.g., Prefaces, Errata, Letters to the Editor, Editorials, Commentaries, previous award-winning articles). Some papers qualified for this list as eFirst papers published in 2024; if available, citations have been updated using final 2025 citation.

Free Access Category[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30]

For recent prior awards, many of the most popular papers were related to COVID-19. As COVID-19 is no longer considered a pandemic, and as journals transition back to “business as usual,” COVID-19 papers have partly transitioned into post-COVID-19 or post-COVID-19 immunization-related papers. Thus, 10/30 papers in the top 30 list have some connection to COVID-19, with two of these related to vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT),[2] [12] a rare but serious condition arising from vaccination against COVID-19 using adenovirus-based vaccine.

For the 2025 most popular awards, the top downloaded paper, was also related to COVID-19, being a review around “Long COVID,” otherwise alternatively called post-COVID-19 syndrome, long-haul COVID, postacute sequelae of COVID-19, by the authorship team of Kruger et al.[1] This paper has now been accessed online in excess of 25,000 times. This is even more extraordinary since the paper was published in 2024 and is still only available as an eFirst publication, being included in an issue to be published in 2025 (final citation in [Table 3]). The second most popular paper, from long-time collaborators Warkentin and Greinacher was related to VITT, and its “older cousin” heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).[2] Thus, the winners of the 2025 most popular awards for the “free access” category are:

Kruger A, Joffe D, Lloyd-Jones G, Khan MA, Salamon S, Laubscher GJ, Putrino D, Kell DB, Pretorius E. Vascular pathogenesis in acute and long COVID: current insights and therapeutic outlook. Semin Thromb Hemost 2024:10.1055/s-0044-1790603 (to be published as 2025;51:256–271).
Warkentin TE, Greinacher A. Laboratory testing for heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia antibodies: a narrative review. Semin Thromb Hemost 2023;49(6):621–633.

Several other eFirst papers also appear in [Table 3].[6] [10] [23] [24] This early recognition, before papers are published within an issue, should therefore be marked as a special achievement for these papers. Similarly, one of the listed papers derives from a previous Young Investigator award winner.[12]

General Category[31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50] [51] [52] [53] [54] [55] [56] [57] [58] [59] [60]

The publisher of STH, Thieme, had in the past provided most material related to COVID19 as free to download, and so COVID19 related material is less likely to be itemised in the “general category” list of most popular. The 30 most popular nonfree to download papers are listed in [Table 4]; thus, the two winners for this category are:

Bartlett R, Arachichilage DJ, Chitlur M, Hui SR, Neunert C, Doyle A, Retter A, Hunt BJ, Lim HS, Saini A, Renne T, Kostousov V, Teruya J. The history of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and the development of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation anticoagulation. Semin Thromb Hemost 2024;50(1):81–90.
Costamagna G, Navi BB, Beyeler M, Hottinger AF, Alberio L, Michel P. Ischemic stroke in cancer: mechanisms, biomarkers, and implications for treatment. Semin Thromb Hemost 2024;50(3):342–359.

Again, several eFirst publications also appear in this list, with some of these just published in early 2025.[44] [46] [52]

As always, I always get considerable satisfaction in announcing these awards. In total, considering the top 30 papers in the “Free to download” most popular ([Table 3]) and the top 30 papers in the general category most popular ([Table 4]), the most popular issues (4 or more papers in [Tables 3] and [4]) were:

Responses from Award Winners

All authors of the award-winning articles were thrilled to hear that their papers had won an Eberhard F Mammen Most Popular award and provided their own personal responses to the news.

“From Etheresia (Resia) Pretorius, on behalf of all authors ([Fig. 2]), “We are honored and deeply gratified to receive the Eberhard F. Mammen Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis Most Popular Article Award in the “Free to Download” category for our article, “Vascular Pathogenesis in Acute and Long COVID: Current Insights and Therapeutic Outlook.” The recognition underscores the importance of addressing vascular dysfunction as a central theme in the pathophysiology of long COVID, a topic that resonates deeply within the current global health landscape and holds critical significance for patients urgently seeking effective treatments.

Fig. 2 From left to right, top to bottom: Arneaux Kruger, David Joffe, Graham Lloyd-Jones, Muhammed Asad Khan, Špela Šalamon, Gert J. Laubscher, David Putrino, Douglas B. Kell, Etheresia Pretorius.

Our review highlights the pivotal role of thrombotic endothelialitis in both acute and long COVID, emphasizing the necessity for early diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to mitigate endothelial dysfunction and its systemic consequences. This award is a testament to the collaborative efforts of an exceptional research team spanning multiple disciplines and institutions across the globe.

We also extend our deepest gratitude to the readers and editorial board STH for recognizing our work's relevance and significance. This acknowledgment motivates us to continue our efforts in elucidating the complexities of long COVID and advancing our understanding of vascular pathogenesis for better patient outcomes.

Thank you for this incredible honor.”

From Ted Warkentin and Andreas Greinacher ([Fig. 3]), “We're so very glad to hear that the readers of STH were interested in our review of laboratory testing for HIT and VITT antibodies. Although not known at the time of its publication, subsequent discoveries that VITT/VITT-like antibodies can be caused by adenovirus infection and also be synonymous with certain platelet-activating monoclonal gammopathies (VITT-like monoclonal gammopathy of thrombotic significance), means that this topic will remain relevant, even as classic (vaccine-induced) VITT has become a thing of the past.”

From Jun Teruya, on behalf of all authors, many of whom provided photos for this announcement ([Fig. 4]): “We are thrilled to have received an Eberhard F Mammen Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis Most Popular Article Award in the General Category. This is the second time I have personally been honored with this award. When Prof. Favaloro asked me to write about the history of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), I immediately reached out to Dr. Robert Bartlett, the Father of ECMO. He happily accepted my invitation to be the first author. It was fortunate that a total of 13 world experts in various areas of ECMO eventually contributed to this article. Until I began working at Texas Children's Hospital in 2001, I had no experience with ECMO. However, soon after I started observing ECMO, I became very interested in managing coagulation, anticoagulation, and transfusion. It is a complex and fascinating model of coagulation and platelets. Since the inception of ECMO, there have been numerous technological developments and improvements in patient outcomes as stated in the article. I hope to author a similar article on the history of ECMO in 10 years. I am confident that the complications of bleeding and thrombosis will be much less prevalent by then.”

Fig. 4 From left to right, top to bottom: Jun Teruya (with a baby who was on ECMO and received a successful heart transplant; permission obtained from the patient's family), Deepa J. Arachichilage, Meera Chitlur, Shiu-Ki Rocky Hui, Cindy Neunert, Andrew Doyle, Beverley J. Hunt, Hoong Sem Lim, Arun Saini, Thomas Renné, Vadim Kostousov (missing: Robert Bartlett, Andrew Retter).

From Gianluca Costamagna and Patrik Michel ([Fig. 5]), speaking on behalf of all authors, “We are deeply honored to receive one of the 2025 Eberhard F. Mammen Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis Most Popular Article Awards. We are happy to learn that our narrative review, “Ischemic Stroke in Cancer: Mechanisms, Biomarkers, and Implications for Treatment,” has been so well-received by the readership.

Fig. 5 Left to right: Gianluca Costamagna, Patrik Michel (missing: Babak B. Navi, Morin Beyeler, Andreas F. Hottinger, Lorenzo Alberio).

Cancer-related stroke is a niche yet relevant topic within the vascular neurology and hematology communities, often involving critically ill patients managed with limited evidence-based guidelines. In our review, we discussed the underlying pathophysiology and proposed a new framework for classifying cancer-related mechanisms. We also overviewed available biomarkers, highlighting their associations with outcomes, and provided a detailed discussion on current evidence for acute-phase treatments in this population. Additionally, we addressed the selection of antithrombotic therapy at discharge, as well as considerations for initiating or resuming cancer treatment after stroke. We extend our thanks to the Editor-in-Chief, Prof. Favaloro, for the opportunity to review this important topic, and to all our co-authors for their invaluable contributions.”

I would, as always, like to thank not only all the authors listed in [Tables 2] [3] [4] [5], but also all the other contributing authors that didn't manage to make these listings, as well as all the many other guest editors of issues recently published in STH. I likewise look forward to seeing future listings—always a great pleasure and sometimes a surprise.
