ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a group of disorders of clonal haemopoiesis associated with an inherent risk of arterial and venous thrombotic complications. The prevalence of thrombotic complications and the impact of cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) in contemporary patient cohorts within the current era of MPN treatments have not been completely defined. OBJECTIVES: We aim to characterise the cardiovascular risk of patients with MPN by identifying the prevalence of CVRFs and describing the pattern of thrombotic events. We also aim to utilise the QRISK3 algorithm, which is a validated model used to estimate an individual's risk of developing cardiovascular disease, to further phenotype this cohort of patients. METHODS: We perform a retrospective analysis on a single-centre cohort of 438 patients with MPN. RESULTS: MPN patients continue to carry a high burden of vascular morbidity with a prevalence of arterial thrombotic events in 15.8 % (69/438) and venous thrombotic events in 13.2 % (58/438) of the cohort. The novel use of the QRISK3 algorithm, which showed a mean score of 13.7 % across the MPN population, provides further evidence to suggest an increased cardiovascular risk in MPN patients. CONCLUSION: With an increased risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with MPN, we propose an integrated approach between primary and specialised healthcare services using risk stratification tools such as QRISK3, which will allow aggressive optimisation of CVRFs to prevent thrombosis and reduce the overall morbidity and mortality in patients with MPN.
