aHR, adjusted hazard ratio; AMR, absolute mortality rate.
aaHR—adjusted hazard ratio obtained from flexible parametric survival modelling on the odds scale with five degrees of freedom and time-varying covariates for optimal care and GRACE risk, adjusted for: patient demographics (sex, year, and Index of Multiple Deprivation) and medical history (history of diabetes, smoking status, family history of coronary heart disease, hypertension, previous myocardial infarction, previous angina, peripheral vascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma, chronic renal failure, congestive cardiac failure, previous percutaneous coronary intervention, previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and total cholesterol).
