Age- and gender-specific incidence rates of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia (TWT) subtypes and alternative definitions. In the first three rows, we report the incidence rate per 1000 person-years for TWT subtypes, defined as patients with a new diagnosis of a given thrombosis subtype (such as myocardial infarction, deep venues thrombosis, hepatic thrombosis) and a new diagnosis of thrombocytopenia (identified either by a diagnosis code or a platelet measurement ≤ 150,000 per microliter) within 7 days. In the last row, we report on the incidence rate per 1000 person-years for TWT alternative definition
