HR = hazard ratio; other abbreviations as in Tables 1 and 2.

§

Adjusted for all clinical variables in Table 1 (except the 5 or 7 variables included in the CHADS2 and CHA2DS2–VASc scoring systems, respectively), LVEF, Killip class, chronic kidney disease and medication at discharge.

Per unit increase in the original 6- or 8-criteria CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scoring systems, respectively.
