For secondary outcomes of lab values, vitals, anti-hypertensives, and aspirin treatment, statistical testing is adjusted for baseline value and age. For lab testing, statistical testing is adjusted for age. Results with imputation via last observation carried forward and multiple imputation available in Supplement Table 2.

Aspirin and number of antihypertensives based on assessment at 6 months post-notification. All other outcomes based on last assessment during the 6-month follow-up period.

New aspirin treatment among those not on treatment at baseline.
