Title:

Chronic kidney disease and the risk of venous thromboembolism

Dept./Program:
Center for Clinical and Translational Science
Year:
2018
Degree:
PhD
Abstract:
We conclude that CKD is a risk factor for VTE, and findings shed light on the mechanisms of this association. Interventions that might lower VTE risk in CKD patients include exercise and statin therapy, but not weight loss. Factor VIII is a potential mediator of VTE in CKD and deserves further study. We suggest several avenues for future research to explore the relationship of Factor VIII and CKD.
