Patients with acute thrombotic stroke (n = 13) and VTE (DVT and PE; n = 12) were included in this study. Data are reported as the mean ± SD unless otherwise stated, with differences between the groups as noted. Group comparisons by for dichotomous and t test for continuous variables.
BMI, body mass index; CIV, common iliac vein; ICA, internal carotid artery; LCIV, left common iliac vein; LEIV, left external iliac vein; MCA, middle cerebral artery; PA, pulmonary artery; RCIV, right common internal vein; RV, right ventricle; SD, standard deviation.
