Timothy Brighton, John W. Eikelboom, K. Mann, Rebecca Mister et al.

Short summary

Low-dose aspirin (100 mg daily) did not significantly reduce recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) but did significantly reduce major vascular events by 34% (HR 0.66) and overall major vascular events or death by 33% (HR 0.67) in patients who completed initial anticoagulant therapy for unprovoked VTE.
