Few studies, however, distinguish patients based on the initial event. Objectives We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate patients with aPL and venous TE (VTE), provoked or unprovoked, and patients with arterial TE (ATE). Patients/methods We conducted searches in PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, and EMBASE. Inclusion criteria were prospective trials or cohort studies investigating patients with aPL and ATE or VTE. Excluded studies did not provide estimated recurrence rates, did not specify whether the incident event was ATE or VTE, included patients with multiple events, or included less then 10 patients. Two-year summary proportions were estimated using a random effects model. Results Ten studies described patients with VTE, 2 with ATE, and 5 with VTE or ATE. The two-year proportion for recurrent TE in patients with VTE who were taking anticoagulant therapy was 0.054 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.037, 0.079); the two-year proportion for patients not taking anticoagulant therapy was 0.178 (95% CI 0.150, 0.209). Most studies did not distinguish whether VTE were provoked or unprovoked. The two-year proportion for recurrent TE in patients with ATE who were taking anticoagulant therapy was 0.220 (95% CI 0.149, 0.311); the two-year proportion for patients taking antiplatelet therapy was 0.216 (95% CI 0.177, 0.261). Conclusions Patients with aPL and ATE may benefit from a different antithrombotic approach than patients with aPL and VTE. Prospective studies with well-defined cohorts with aPL and TE are necessary to determine optimal antithrombotic strategies.Targeted chemotherapy remains the primary choice in controlling various forms of breast cancer (BC) due to its heterogenous gene expressions in various subtypes.
