IBD inflammatory bowel disease; VTE venous thromboembolism; DVT deep vein thrombosis; PE pulmonary embolism; HR hazard ratio; CI confidence interval.

*Matched on age and sex.

**Multivariable-adjusted model 1: adjustment for provoking factors (recent surgery, fracture, systemic corticosteroids, and pregnancy within 90 days of event).

***Multivariable-adjusted model 2: Model 1 plus adjustment for co-morbidities (hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and chronic kidney disease).

****Multivariable-adjusted model 3: Model 2 plus adjustment for history of anticoagulation therapy.
