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.
