Fatal and Nonfatal Coronary and Cerebrovascular Ischemic Events Among Asymptomatic Patients With Multiple Risk Factors, or Patients With 1 Established Arterial Vascular Disease at Baseline (n = 1586)

Vasculopathy at Baseline 4‐Year Nonfatal Ischemic Events 4‐Year Fatal Ischemic Events
AMI Strokea TIAa AMI Stroke
Asymptomatics at risk (n = 234), % 1.7 2.1 0.4 1.3 0.4
CAD (n = 839), % 2.0 1.4 1.1 1.5 0.4
CVD (n = 416), % 1.7 9.9 3.8 2.2 1.4
PAD (n = 97), % 2.1 4.1 1.0 2.1 2.1

Abbreviations: AMI, acute myocardial infarction; CAD, coronary artery disease; CVD, cerebrovascular disease; PAD, peripheral artery disease; TIA, transient ischemic attack. Patients with ≥1 vascular disease location were not analyzed here.

P < 0.05 for homogeneity among vasculopathy classes at baseline.
