Outcomes at 15 days includes patients who first received LMWH and transitioned to other agents. Outcomes during LMWH therapy include only outcomes attributable to LMWH as described in “Methods.” ORs marked with a dash did not reach P < .1 in univariable analyses and therefore were not included in multivariable analyses.
