Risk of Uncomplicated Peptic Ulcer in the General Population
- Conditions
- Peptic Ulcer [Iowa Type (107680.0010)]
- Interventions
- Drug: Risk of symptomatic peptic ulcer
- Registration Number
- NCT01888588
- Lead Sponsor
- AstraZeneca
- Brief Summary
The analyses are conducted in a previous population-based cohort study using The Health Improvement Network database in the UK (Cai et al 2009).The aims of the post hoc analyses are:
To estimate the relative risk of uncomplicated symptomatic peptic ulcer (UPU) associated with use of low dose aspirin (ASA) and other anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, steroids) in the general population To estimate the dose-response and duration-response associated with use of these drugs To estimate the relative risk of UPU associated with naive/non-naive use of low dose ASA in the general population To evaluate the effect of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) (alone or in combination with anti-inflammatory drugs) on the occurrence of UPU in the general population To investigate the management of low dose ASA/oral antiplatelets after UPU
