Propensity Score Matching for Guideline‐Recommended Therapies

Outcome	Unadjusted HR	Adjusted HR
MACE	0.83 (0.60 to 1.13)	0.61 (0.45 to 0.83)
MALE	0.67 (0.46 to 0.98)	0.68 (0.46 to 1.00)
Death	0.73 (0.51 to 1.05)	0.56 (0.39 to 0.80)
Amputation/death	0.75 (0.55 to 1.02)	0.62 (0.45 to 0.85)

Nearest‐neighbor matching was performed using a caliper width equal to 0.25× standard deviation of the propensity score. Unadjusted hazard ratios represent rates of MACE, MALE, death, and amputation/death before adjustment of baseline covariates. Adjusted hazard ratios were calculated using the same covariates included in the main propensity model. HR indicates hazard ratio; MACE, major adverse cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events; MALE, major adverse limb events.
