Data are numbers, with 95% CI where indicated.

*

Assessed by Pearson chi-square test with Yates continuity correction for events preceding diagnosis and log-rank test for events after trial entry.

Indicates total patients rather than total events; some patients had more than one event.

Lower limb arterial embolus (2); upper limb arterial thrombosis.

§

Multivariate analysis including patient age and previous history of venous thrombosis.

Pericardial (2), urinary (2), postoperative and obstetric.

Multivariate analysis including patient age and previous history of arterial thrombosis.
