*

Includes patients receiving long term AC with or without cytoreduction and/or with or without aspirin.

**

Reported P value comparing events among patients receiving AC therapy versus patients not on AC therapy.

***

Hazard ratio comparing long term AC therapy with aspirin.

****

Study reports incidence rate ratio.

*****

Reported P value comparing incidence of major bleeding events in patients receiving AC versus dual AC and APT therapy.

HR, hazard ratio; N/R, not reported; py, patient-years.
