Elevated leptin and decreased adiponectin independently predict the post-thrombotic syndrome in obese and non-obese patients
Abstract Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a common complication of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Little is known about the involvement of adipokines in the pathogenesis of DVT. We evaluated whether adipokines can predict PTS. In a prospective cohort study, 320 DVT patients aged 70 years or less were...
