Absolute effects of antiplatelet therapy on various outcomes in patients with (a) previous myocardial infarction (12 trials); (b) acute myocardial infarction (15 trials); (c) previous stroke or transient ischaemic attack (21 trials); and (d) acute (presumed ischaemic) stroke (seven trials). Adjusted control totals have been calculated after converting any unevenly randomised trials to even ones by counting control groups more than once. In “any death” columns, non-vascular deaths are represented by lower horizontal lines (and may be calculated by subtracting vascular deaths from any deaths)
