Lower early mortality and risk prediction improvement of obesity after acute pulmonary embolism: results from a multicenter cohort analysis with external validation
We present evidence indicating lower early- and mid-term mortality after PE in patients classified as obese based on BMI, compared with nonobese, nonunderweight patients. BMI should likely be incorporated into algorithms or scoring systems for predicting early mortality following PE.
