Cancer-related Venous Thromboembolic Disease - Cohort Study

Venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) is a common (1/1000), potentially serious disease (10% mortality when the clinical presentation is that of pulmonary embolism (PE)). In cancer patients, the risk of developing VTE is high and constitutes a negative prognostic factor for cancer; the risk of bleeding is also increased. The study of VTE in the context of cancer is a major challenge, given the frequency of the association, the heterogeneity of the situations, the risk factors involved and the therapeutic issues in both curative and primary prevention; in this field, many uncertainties remain, justifying a study focused on the association of VTE and cancer.

Diffrence in Thromboprofilaksis in Elderly Ostoepenic Hip Fractures According to Mobility Status by Genetic Analysis

Hip fracture is a common and severe disease in elderly patients. The question of the study is whether elderly patients with severe osteopenia have significantly lower levels of the collagen-binding protein Hsp47 than relatively mobile patients due to advanced immobility before the fracture, and whether they participants have a similar risk of VTE to the normal population despite having had a hip fracture and surgery.

Ongoing Registry of Treatment of Venous Thromboembolism

Ongoing registration of patients with venous thromboembolism treated by means of antithrombotic therapy, thrombolisys, open surgery, endovenous desobstruction and stenting.
