Background The risk of thromboembolic events in adults with primary immune
thrombocytopenia has been little investigated despite findings of increased susceptibility in
other thrombocytopenic autoimmune conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate
the risk of thromboembolic events among adult patients with and without primary immune
thrombocytopenia in the UK General Practice Research Database.
Abstract
Background
The risk of thromboembolic events in adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia has been little investigated despite findings of increased susceptibility in other thrombocytopenic autoimmune conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk of thromboembolic events among adult patients with and without primary immune thrombocytopenia in the UK General Practice Research Database.
