Abstract Background: ITP is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by low platelet counts, resulting in an increased risk for bleeding. Paradoxically, patients with cITP may also have an increased incidence of thrombotic or thromboembolic events, but population-based data on this are limited. We estimated the incidence of these events in a prospective cohort study of incident cITP patients in three Nordic countries. Methods: Based on National Health Registry Systems (NHRSs) and medical records in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, the study cohort included all adults diagnosed with cITP from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2012 (n=1,821). Arterial thrombotic events (myocardial infarction [MI] and stroke) and venous thromboembolic events (pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis) were identified in the NHRSs. Patients were followed from the latest of cITP diagnosis or April 1, 2009, until the earliest date of the first occurrence of the event of interest, death, emigration, or December 31, 2012. Incidence rates (events per 1,000 person-weeks [PW]) were computed for the entire cohort and stratified by gender, age, splenectomy status, and comorbidity burden. Results: Nearly 60% of the cITP cohort was >50 years in age, and 56% were female. Overall, the incidence of arterial thrombotic events was 0.31 per 1,000 PW (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.25-0.39) and the incidence of venous thromboembolic events was 0.18 per 1,000 PW (95% CI: 0.13-0.24). For arterial thrombotic events, the risk was higher in males (compared with females), and the risk for both event types increased with increasing age and comorbid burden. Given the small number of patients who underwent splenectomy (n=101), it was difficult to detect any differences in the risk of thrombotic events by splenectomy status, but the incidence of venous thromboembolic events was higher in splenectomized versus non-splenectomized patients (0.27 per 1,000 PW [95% CI: 0.15-0.50] versus 0.16 [95% CI: 0.11-0.23]). Conclusions: Among patients with cITP, the risk of arterial thrombotic events is higher in males than females and increases with increasing age and level of comorbid burden. The risk of venous thromboembolic events is heightened in cITP patients who have undergone splenectomy. Abstract 4845.

Abstract Objective To assess rates of cardiovascular and haemostatic events in the first 28 days after vaccination with the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine ChAdOx1-S in Denmark and Norway and to compare them with rates observed in the general populations. Design Population based cohort study. Setting Nationwide healthcare registers in Denmark and Norway. Participants All people aged 18-65 years who received a first vaccination with ChAdOx1-S from 9 February 2021 to 11 March 2021. The general populations of Denmark (2016-18) and Norway (2018-19) served as comparator cohorts. Main outcome measures Observed 28 day rates of hospital contacts for incident arterial events, venous thromboembolism, thrombocytopenia/coagulation disorders, and bleeding among vaccinated people compared with expected rates, based on national age and sex specific background rates from the general populations of the two countries. Results The vaccinated cohorts comprised 148 792 people in Denmark (median age 45 years, 80% women) and 132 472 in Norway (median age 44 years, 78% women), who received their first dose of ChAdOx1-S. Among 281 264 people who received ChAdOx1-S, the standardised morbidity ratio for arterial events was 0.97 (95% confidence interval 0.77 to 1.20). 59 venous thromboembolic events were observed in the vaccinated cohort compared with 30 expected based on the incidence rates in the general population, corresponding to a standardised morbidity ratio of 1.97 (1.50 to 2.54) and 11 (5.6 to 17.0) excess events per 100 000 vaccinations. A higher than expected rate of cerebral venous thrombosis was observed: standardised morbidity ratio 20.25 (8.14 to 41.73); an excess of 2.5 (0.9 to 5.2) events per 100 000 vaccinations. The standardised morbidity ratio for any thrombocytopenia/coagulation disorders was 1.52 (0.97 to 2.25) and for any bleeding was 1.23 (0.97 to 1.55). 15 deaths were observed in the vaccine cohort compared with 44 expected. Conclusions Among recipients of ChAdOx1-S, increased rates of venous thromboembolic events, including cerebral venous thrombosis, were observed. For the remaining safety outcomes, results were largely reassuring, with slightly higher rates of thrombocytopenia/coagulation disorders and bleeding, which could be influenced by increased surveillance of vaccine recipients. The absolute risks of venous thromboembolic events were, however, small, and the findings should be interpreted in the light of the proven beneficial effects of the vaccine, the context of the given country, and the limitations to the generalisability of the study findings.
