A Silent Threat: Deep Vein Thrombosis in Early-Stage Parkinson’s Disease
Introduction: The primary clinical manifestation of venous thrombosis is discomfort in the lower extremities. Some early Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients feel discomfort in the lower limbs. Venous thrombosis can risk lives by causing pulmonary embolism. This study examines the incidence of DVT in early PD patients and its correlation with different clinical and lab features. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 117 patients with early-stage PD. Ultrasonography was employed to detect the presence of DVT. Factors such as age, gender, body mass index, lifestyle habits (smoking and drinking), medical history (hypertension, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, and tumor), and other lab tests linked to thrombosis were analyzed. Results: In 117 patients, 11 (9.4%) had DVT, while 106 (90.6%) did not. There were no significant differences in gender, BMI, habits, medical history, or other thrombosis-related tests between both groups. However, DVT patients were older with higher d-dimer levels. They also showed an increased right substantia nigra ultrasound echo area, higher HY grades, higher UPDRS 3 scores, less improvement in UPDRS 3 scores and levodopa response. Discussion: The primary risk factors for lower extremity venous thrombosis were found to be age, d-dimer levels, and low-dose levodopa. Therefore, for elderly patients with early-stage PD, it is crucial to conduct d-dimer and lower extremity vascular ultrasound tests. The prevention of venous thrombosis in the lower extremities of early PD patients is of utmost importance.

Health economic evaluations and resource management
Risk Management and Healthcare Policy focuses on human interventional and observational research. The journal welcomes submitted papers covering original research, clinical and epidemiological studies, reviews and evaluations, guidelines, expert opinion and commentary, and extended reports. Case reports will only be considered if they make a valuable and original contribution to the literature. The journal does not accept study protocols, animal-based or cell line-based studies.
