Multi-Objective Optimization for Personalized Prediction of Venous Thromboembolism in Ovarian Cancer Patients.

Thrombotic events are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity related to cancer, with ovarian cancer having one of the highest incidence rates. The need to prevent these events through the prescription of adequate schemes of antithrombotic prophylaxis has motivated the development of models that aid the identification of patients at higher risk of thrombotic events with lethal consequ...
