1998年，术语经济舱综合症被创造出来，用来描述旅行和血栓形成之间的联系。然而，一个公平的风险评估还没有完成。我们报告了一项前瞻性研究的结果，在该研究中，我们将偏见的影响保持在最低限度。我们比较了788例静脉血栓形成患者和那些症状相似但疾病已被排除在外的对照组的旅行历史。仅就航空旅行而言，优势比为1.0(95%可信区间为0.3-3.0)；此外，未记录其他交通方式的关联。我们已经证明，在旅行者中没有增加深静脉血栓形成的风险。
In 1998 the term economy class syndrome was coined to describe the association between travel and thrombosis. A fair risk estimate, however, has not been done. We report the results of a prospective study, in which we kept the effect of bias to a minimum. We compared travel history in 788 patients with venous thrombosis with that of controls with similar symptoms but in whom the disease had been excluded. For air travel alone, the odds ratio was 1.0 (95% CI 0.3-3.0); also, no association was recorded for other methods of transportation. We have shown that, there is no increased risk of deep vein thrombosis among travellers.
