Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: RESULTS: Baseline TP was found in 4.2% of patients and was associated with a higher incidence of cardiovascular mortality, major bleeding, and major cardiovascular events at short- and long-term follow-up. The 30-day rates of death, major bleeding, major cardiac events, and major cardiac events plus major bleeding were 6.2%, 11.9%, 9.6%, and 18.5% in the TP group, respectively, compared with 2.1%, 7%, 5.2%, and 10.8% in those without TP (P < .05 for all). Similarly, event rates at 2 years were 11.3%, 12.7%, 24.7%, and 30.8% compared with 5.1%, 7.9%, 18.5%, and 23.3% (P < .05). By multivariate analysis, baseline TP was an independent predictor of 30-day net adverse clinical events but not of any 2-year events. CONCLUSIONS:
