Table 3 Absolute probability differences (thrombolysis minus angioplasty), odds ratios for the 6‐month treatment effects of angioplasty compared with thrombolytic treatment (mean and 95% credibility interval (95% CrI)) and probability that angioplasty is superior at assumed “angioplasty‐related time delays” of 30, 60 and 90 minutes.
