RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Aspirin: Its risks, benefits, and optimal use in preventing cardiovascular events JF Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine JO Cleve Clin J Med FD Cleveland Clinic SP 318 OP 326 DO 10.3949/ccjm.80a.12146 VO 80 IS 5 A1 Ki Park A1 Anthony A. Bavry YR 2013 UL http://www.ccjm.org/content/80/5/318.abstract AB Aspirin has a well-established role in preventing adverse events in patients with known cardiovascular disease. However, its benefit in patients without a history of cardiovascular disease is not as clear, particularly in people with diabetes, in women, and in the elderly. Recent studies have provided insight into the risks of aspirin use, particularly bleeding, compared with its benefits in these subgroups.
