Clinical use of thromboprophylaxis is recommended, however its usage is limited due to bleeding complications, more cost associated, and reluctance to receive anticoagulant injections. Rivaroxaban a relatively easy to administer anticoagulant but it has a risk of bleeding and is expensive. Inflammation is the important factor in pathogenesis of cancer-associated thrombosis. Statins have the anti-inflammatory property that could decrease proinflammatory cytokines. Consequently, statins may be used as thromboprophylaxis for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>To provide comparison between atorvastatin and rivaroxaban on affecting inflammatory biomarkers (interleukin 6 [IL-6], C reactive protein [CRP]) and coagulation activation biomarkers (Tissue Factor [TF], prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 [F1 + 2], D-Dimer) in cancer patients at high risk of thrombosis receiving chemotherapy.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A randomized controlled study that was double-blinded and involved high-risk cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Weighted univariable, multivariate logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were performed to evaluate the association between dietary zinc intake and 10-year risk of ASCVD among patients with DM. Stratified analysis based on the history of hypertension, dyslipidemia and hypoglycemic agent's treatment were further evaluated these associations.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Finally, we included 3,053 DM patients, of which 1,245 (40.78%) had high risk of 10-year ASCVD. We found higher dietary zinc intake was related to lower 10-year ASCVD risk among patients with DM (OR = 0.77, 95%CI: 0.61-0.99, P = 0.044), especially in patients with hypertension (OR = 0.53, 95%CI: 0.36-0.80), dyslipidemia (OR = 0.74, 95%CI: 0.58-0.95, P = 0.019), and hypoglycemic agent's treatment (OR = 0.71, 95%CI: 0.54-0.93, P = 0.016).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Sufficient dietary zinc intake has potential benefits for cardiovascular health among patients with DM. Further large-scale and well-designed prospective study are needed to further explore these associations.</p>","PeriodicalId":22982,"journal":{"name":"Thrombosis Journal","volume":"23 1","pages":"18"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11884122/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143574115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
