title: [Research advances in aspirin resistance].
abstract: Aspirin is an important antithrombotic agent. However, its clinical benefit is impaired by aspirin resistance. The term of "aspirin resistance" usually refers to laboratory resistance. It can be identified by measuring thromboxane A2 or thromboxane-dependent platelet function. Clinical trials have shown that laboratory aspirin resistance is correlated with vascular events.
