Risk of Venous Thromboembolism in Patients by Albuminuria and Estimated GFR
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) is elevated with albuminuria or a low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). However, the VTE risk due to the combined effects of eGFR and albuminuria are unknown.
STUDY DESIGN: Population-based cohort study.
