 HFpEF HFpEF vs no HF 2.54 (1.99-3.25)
 Taking D or S Taking D or S vs not taking D or S 1.24 (0.64-2.40)
 HFrEF taking D or S HFrEF taking D or S vs HFrEF not taking D or S 2.06 (0.76-5.61)
 HFpEF taking D or S HFpEF taking D or S vs HFpEF not taking D or S 0.72 (0.28-1.82)

The multinomial propensity score method was used to select potential covariates (listed in Supplemental Tables 7 and 8), and any characteristics with SMDs larger than 0.1 (listed in Supplemental Tables 7 and 8) were incorporated into the final model for double adjustment. The inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to stabilize the covariates-induced differences and survival analysis for the recurrent events model was performed. HFrEF, HFpEF, and taking D or S are the main effects, and HFrEF taking D or S and HFpEF taking D or S are the interaction terms in the model.
