a Hazard ratios and 95% CIs between year groups during early and late risk periods from the multiple imputation analysis.

b Multivariable adjustment was made for age, sex, comorbid conditions, body mass index (measured as weight (kg)/height (m)2), hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking, Killip class, ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, percutaneous coronary intervention, thrombolysis, and recurrent myocardial infarction (modeled as a time-dependent covariate).

c The early risk period was 0–7 days after myocardial infarction. Analyses were based on a total of 475 heart failure cases, 317 (67%) of whom had a reduced ejection fraction and 158 of whom had a preserved ejection fraction.

d The late risk period was 8 days–5 years after myocardial infarction. Analyses were based on a total of 240 heart failure cases, 144 (60%) of whom had a reduced ejection fraction and 96 of whom had a preserved ejection fraction.
