## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with malignant gliomas. To investigate the pathogenesis of VTE and facilitate targeted prophylaxis strategies, the authors aimed to characterize VTE risk factors in these patients. #
## BACKGROUND. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) frequently complicates the course of patients with cancer, and there is evidence to suggest that patients with brain tumors are at particularly high risk. The objective of this methodology-based literature review was to quantify the rate of incidence of
## Abstract One event that accompanies glioma progression is the upregulation of angiogenesis. Lowβgrade gliomas are moderately vascularized tumors whereas highβgrade gliomas show prominent microvascular proliferations and areas of high vascular density. To analyze the molecular mechanisms underlyi
