Why the study?
Does the combination of TAT, PIC, TM, t-PAIC, D-dimer, and FDP improve the diagnosis of VTE in patients with malignant tumors compared to a single marker?

A combination of TAT, PIC, TM, t-PAIC, D-dimer, and FDP improves VTE diagnosis in cancer patients, with TM and t-PAIC serving as independent prognostic indicators.
TAT, PIC, TM, and t-PAIC combined with D-dimer and FDP were better than the application of a single marker in the diagnosis of VTE in patients with malignant tumors. TAT and PIC can be used as sensitive markers in the diagnosis of VTE but not as prognostic markers. TM and t-PAIC might be independent prognostic indicators in patients with malignant tumors, regardless of the state of thrombus.
