Event rates in percentage of total number of patients; CID sub-events in percentage of total CID events

The rows with individual components (exacerbations, FEV1 events, SGRQ events) describe events as independent variables, whereas the subtypes of first CID events describe the variable/combination occurring first within a patient.
