Interestingly, patients with unprovoked DVT compared with those with provoked DVT had slightly higher leptin (27.9 [24.9–30.4] versus 26.9 [23.7–30] ng mL−1, p = 0.04), lower resistin (14.7 [13.7–15.9] versus 15.2 [14.0–16.7] pg mL−1, p = 0.02), and tended to have lower adiponectin concentrations (14.7 [13.5–16.6] versus 15 [13.9–16.9] μg mL−1, p = 0.06, respectively) despite similar BMI values in the two subgroups (26.1 [23.8–29.3] versus 26 [23.4–29.4] kg m−2, p = 0.72). This evidence concerns the gene ADIPOQ and deep vein thrombosis.
