BACKGROUND: In some studies, @entity1211 has been associated with @entity731 and with the risk of arterial cardiovascular events such as @entity583 and @entity64 . Other studies, however, do not show this association. To help clarify these discrepant findings, we aimed to investigate the risk of arterial cardiovascular events in @entity1 who were diagnosed with @entity1211 . METHODS: We undertook a 20-year population-based cohort study using data from nationwide Danish medical databases. After excluding those with known @entity65 , we assessed the risk of @entity583 and @entity64 in 25,199 @entity1 with @entity1150 , 16,925 @entity1 with @entity1151 , and 163,566 population controls. FINDINGS: For @entity1 with @entity1150 , the relative risks varied from 1.60 for @entity583 (95% CI 1.35-1.91) to 2.19 (1.85-2.60) for @entity64 in the first year after the thrombotic event. For @entity1 with @entity1151 , the relative risks in that year were 2.60 (2.14-3.14) for @entity583 and 2.93 (2.34-3.66) for @entity64 . The relative risks were also raised, though less markedly, during the subsequent 20 years of follow-up, with 20-40% increases in risk for arterial cardiovascular events. Relative risks were similar for those with provoked and unprovoked @entity1150 and @entity1151 . INTERPRETATION: @entity1 with @entity1211 have a substantially increased long-term risk of subsequent arterial cardiovascular events.
