Table values reflect the cause-specific HR (csHR) of the case in relation to the age- and sex-matched controls. Cumulative incidences are calculated with death as a competing risk and only patients who did not have a prior history of the cardiac event of interest are included.

CHF = congestive heart failure; other abbreviations as in Table 1.

a

CHF, AF/AFL, and/or PM/ICD implantation.

b

P < 0.001.
