Diabetes Care.
Diabetes (DM) patients have inherently higher risk of CV outcomes & bleeding irrespective of aspirin dosing, warned a recent study. Patients with versus vs. without DM had higher rates of the CV outcome (9.6% vs. 5.9%) & bleeding events (0.78% vs. 0.50%); use of 81 mg vs. 325 mg of aspirin, in DM patients did not impact these outcomes. A higher aspirin dose may yield no added benefit in more vulnerable DM patients.
