Быть высоким хорошо, но тромбо-опасно

[Dr.Vad]

Risk of VTE increased by 30–40% for each 10 cm increment in height.
Height was more strongly associated with deep vein thrombosis than with pulmonary embolism.
The pooled ORs from non-IV models and models using the full and restricted GRSs as IVs were 1.27 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.11–1.46), 1.34 (95% CI 1.04–1.73) and 1.45 (95% CI 1.04–2.01) per 10-cm greater height, respectively.
Taller height is associated with an increased risk of VTE in adults of European ancestry. Possible explanations for this association, including taller people having a greater venous surface area, a higher number of venous valves, or greater hydrostatic pressure, need to be explored further.
