The research, diagnosis, and treatment of thrombotic disease in China

The International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis has proposed to hold World Thrombosis Day on October 13 annually from 2014 to improve awareness and education of thrombosis. Thrombotic diseases are multidisciplinary disorders involving multiple systems. Thus, multidisciplinary team treatment for thrombotic diseases should be developed in China. A comprehensive study of genetic factors for thrombotic diseases is expected to achieve early diagnosis and risk prediction for this type of disease, and thus precision diagnosis and individualized treatment can be achieved.(Chin J Lab Med, 2016, 39: 729-732) Key words: Embolism and thrombosis; Fibrinogen; Factor Ⅷ; fibrin fibrinogen degradation products; Biological markers; Individualized medicine
