Significats de isolate pe en anglès

Background: Isolated PE is associated with a higher burden of atherosclerotic disease than other manifestations of VTE.

Regularized logistic regression identified features that discriminate between isolated PE and other VTE phenotypes at clinical presentation.

COPD, peripheral artery disease, atrial fibrillation, and coronary artery disease were significantly more prevalent among patients with isolated PE.

Research question: We hypothesized that the presence of isolated PE may signal a chronically elevated risk of arterial thrombotic disease.

Interpretation: Patients with isolated PE are at higher risk for arterial thrombosis and may require screening for arterial disease and development of novel therapeutic strategies.
