T Kawasaki, J Kambayashi, H Ariyoshi, M Sakon… - Thrombosis research, 1997 - Elsevier
Our retrospective study has shown that hyperlipidemia is a novel etiologic factor in deep-
vein thrombosis (DVT) and that most of the idiopathic DVT patients were hyperlipidemic
(Thrombosis Research 79, 147–151, 1995). The aim of our current study is to analyze the
interrelationship between hyperlipidemia and DVT by means of a case-control study. A
series of lipid parameters were analyzed using serum from 109 patients with deep vein
thrombosis (DVT). One hundred nine age-and sex-matched subjects served as controls …
