Article Synopsis
- Colorectal cancer patients have a higher risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE), leading to more health complications and higher death rates, prompting the need for better risk assessment methods.
- The study examined tumor-expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) in a group of colorectal cancer patients to find potential biomarkers associated with VTE, involving 17 patients with VTE and 18 without, using advanced sequencing techniques.
- The researchers identified 19 miRNAs that were significantly regulated in patients with VTE, suggesting potential new biomarkers that could help predict VTE risk in colorectal cancer patients in the future.
Aims: To investigate changes in physical activity (PA) and psychological factors during societal lockdown in people with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: A cross-sectional study among Dutch adults with type 2 diabetes. Data were collected using online questionnaires.
