Implication

DVT features associated with PE may aid risk stratification; leaves open drivers of doubled Japanese incidence and need for prospective validation.

Structured PICO

Population

Patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with pulmonary embolism (PE) (Group A) and without PE (Group B) in Japan.

Outcome

Differences in symptoms, lower extremity findings, and VTE risks between DVT with and without PE; calculated number of new patients with PE and DVT in 2006.

DVT characteristics differ between patients with and without PE, and the incidence of PE in Japan doubled over a decade.
