OriginalAsociación entre enfermedad tromboembólica venosa y dislipidemiaAssociation between venous thrombosis and dyslipidemia

Background and objective Venous and arterial thrombosis, despite being historically considered as distinct conditions, share certain risk factors. Dyslipidemia is a clinical condition with a relatively high prevalence in the population and has been associated with an increased thrombotic risk. Lipids and lipoproteins modulate the expression and/or function of thrombotic, fibrinolytic and rheological factors.
