Not that I've seen.
One thing that is commonly claimed by conventional medicine is stomach issues, but this has been shown on this forum to have been greatly exaggerated. Aspirin itself is acidic, so swallowing an uncoated tablet may sit against the stomach lining long enough to cause problems eventually. To avoid this, tablets can be chewed or dissolved. I knew a dentist who thought aspirin was terrible because he saw several patients who thought it was a local anesthetic and held tablets in their mouth for long periods to try to soothe a toothache, and ended up getting very nasty ulcers on their cheek or gums. But this is simply the physics of a fairly strong acid against a sensitive tissue for too long.
The stomach issues aspirin causes at first are pretty minor and once your body develops tolerance to them (days to a couple weeks), it seems the gut is actually more resilient than before
