Incidence rates of venous thrombosis (VT) (per 1000 person-years) per type of cancer (according to Horsted et al,17 Walker et al,13 and Cronin-Fenton et al11 ) plotted against the 1-year relative mortality for each cancer type. One-year relative mortality was calculated by (1 – 1-year relative survival) according to Eurocare.it.23 For hematologic cancer, venous thrombosis incidence is exclusively shown for Horsted et al, because Walker et al and Cronin-Fenton et al did not present venous thrombosis incidence rates for hematologic cancer as a combined group.
