Table 3 Long term risk of death due to CV and cancer in DVT and PE patients in the study. Multivariable model adjusted by comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, stroke, atrial fibrillation, and cancer) and medications at baseline (anticoagulants, antihypertensive, lipid lowering). CI = confidence interval, CV = cardiovascular, DVT = deep vein thrombosis, PE = pulmonary embolism, HR = hazard ratio
