Re: Risk of acute myocardial infarction with NSAIDs in real world use: bayesian meta-analysis of individual patient data
I give an explanation of the fact that NSAIDS increase the risk of MI here:
Heitor Reis, A. “On the etiology of cardiovascular diseases: A new framework for understanding literature results”, Medical Hypotheses, 92, 94–99 (2016)
Heitor Reis, A. “Acidemia and blood free fatty acids: analysis of cardiovascular risk factors in a new context.” Discovery Medicine 23(126):183-188 (2017) (OPEN ACCESS)
Essentially, NSAIDs cause acidemia, which in the context of high concentrations of Free Fatty Acids increases the risk of MI
