*Excluding ORAL Surveillance.

†In the tofacitinib RA development programme, 2.7% (N=214) of patients had unknown smoking status. Patients <65 years old with unknown smoking status were not included in the low-risk group. 25 patients in the high-risk group had unknown smoking status.

‡Based on day 1 of treatment.

ASCVD, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; CV, cardiovascular; n, number of patients with characteristic; NA, not available; RA, rheumatoid arthritis; TNFi, tumour necrosis factor inhibitor; UC, ulcerative colitis.
