pubmed:abstractText |
Venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) is a common cause of morbidity in Kuwait, but the risk factors have not been studied. Hyperhomocysteinemia has been suggested as one of the risk factors. We postulate that hyperhomocysteinemia acts synergistically with hematological variables to increase VTE risk. This study evaluates the roles of hyperhomocysteinemia and hematological variables in patients with VTE.
