abstract：:Thrombotic events are common in patients with multiple myeloma (MM), smouldering myeloma (SM) and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). Previous studies have indicated platelet hyperactivation as a feature of thrombotic risk in MM, but there is a dearth of data in MGUS. In the present study, multi...
