The 1-month survival rate was higher in the IPE group than in the SPE group (95.4% vs. 75.5%, hazard ratio [HR]: 5.95, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.51 - 16.5,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001), but this difference was not significant after 1 month. In IPE, cancer and bleeding were associated with increased mortality, whereas anticoagulation and lower PE risk categories were associated with reduced mortality. In SPE, cancer and immobilization were associated with increased mortality, whereas anticoagulation, thrombectomy, and lower PE risk categories were associated with reduced mortality.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>IPE is generally associated with lower-risk, more peripheral PE, but anticoagulation should be individualized.
