Background: Risk of VTE recurrence (VTEr) in patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) is high. Cancer-related risk factors for VTEr have been studied, but information about the importance of location of metastasis is scarce.
Objectives: 1) Evaluate rate of VTEr in CAT patients according to location of metastasis, and 2) Identify variables associated to VTEr during long-term follow-up.
Article Synopsis
Aim: This study aims to analyze trends in venous thromboembolism (VTE) mortality in the Spanish Autonomous Communities (ACs) from 1999 to 2022, with a focus on identifying regional disparities and informing targeted public health interventions.
Methods: Age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) were calculated using the European standard population as a reference. Joinpoint regression analysis was employed to identify significant changes in mortality trends, and geographical analysis was conducted using Bayesian inference to assess regional variations in mortality risk.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of residual venous thrombosis (RVT) on the risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) over a 15-year span.
- Out of 511 patients, 35.8% had RVT at 6 months, with associations found between RVT and factors like ECOG performance status, metastasis, and cancer location.
- Results indicated that RVT at 6 months doubles the risk of recurrent VTE within 5 years, while no significant link was found between RVT and clinically relevant bleeding.
Background: Patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) face a heightened risk of clinically relevant bleeding (CRB). However, the relationship between these risks and the location of metastasis remains unclear.
Methods: A single-center, non-interventional study of consecutive patients was conducted between 2007 and 2022, involving patients with CAT (n = 1,277).
