Harnessing Polygenic Risk Scores to Refine Venous Thromboembolism Risk Stratification
ABSTRACT Background Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major cause of morbidity in patients of all ages. Despite growing interest in polygenic risk scores (PRS) for VTE, their utility remains understudied. Our objective was to evaluate the independent impact of a PRS on VTE susceptibility in adults and children.

An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix releases collagen bioactive fragments, which exert molecular functions and regulate numerous biological processes via several signaling pathways. Here, we summarize the latest findings describing the roles of major bioactive fragments from collagens I, IV, VI, and XVIII in various physiological and ...

Risk Factors and Clinical Severity in Chronic Venous Disease: A New Look
Genetic factors, such as gender and positive family history, were associated with the occurrence of mild‐stage disease (CEAP C1–3). Obesity, lack of exercise, and working more than 8 h in a sitting or standing position are strongly associated with severe venous disease (CEAP C4–6).
