Early aspirin withdrawal versus dual antiplatelet therapy in high-risk patients after percutaneous coronary intervention: Meta-analysis of randomized trials

Immediate aspirin noninitiation or cessation should be avoided; timing should be individualized to bleeding and ischemic risk. PROSPERO: CRD420251167706.
