“…As arterial and venous thrombosis seem to share common risk factors, NSAID use may affect the risk of VTE . However, only a few studies have investigated the association between NSAID use and VTE risk, and the results are conflicting . We aimed to further investigate the risk of VTE associated with use of NSAIDs in our nationwide case–control study of risk factors for VTE in women (Thrombo Embolism Hormone Study, TEHS).…”

“…A review showed that in patients with a high risk of venous thrombosis, such as surgery patients, the use of antiplatelet therapy is associated with a reduction of the risk of venous thrombosis of approximately 30% [23]. Regarding first unprovoked venous thrombotic events, a relatively small case–control study revealed risk reductions of up to 50% associated with antiplatelet therapy [24]. However, in a long‐lasting randomized controlled trial among apparently healthy women, the risk of venous thrombosis was only slightly attenuated by low‐dose aspirin [25].…”

“…Patients with arterial thrombosis have been shown to also be at increased risk for venous thrombosis, and overlapping risk factors (age, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hypertriglyceridemia) have been found to be associated with both arterial and venous thrombotic events [32,33]. Furthermore, it has been shown that inflammation and platelet activation are also involved in the pathogenesis of venous thrombosis [33,60]. In line with these observations, many diseases are characterized by both venous and arterial thrombosis, such as cancer [61][62][63][64] and infections [65], as well as anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome [66,67], AAV [68][69][70], LVV [71][72][73] and BS [74,75].…”
