Kaplan–Meier approach with a log-rank test was used to compare the cumulative incidences of KP-PLA including IKPS between aspirin users and non-users. Totally, 63,500 patients were analyzed after propensity-score matching (1:1). Compared with that of non-users, the incidence of KP-PLA was significantly reduced in aspirin users (0.31% vs. 0.50%, p
