a

Met trial-defined ischemia entry criteria according to the stress core laboratory for the respective stress test modality.

b

Did not meet trial-defined ischemia entry criteria according to the stress core laboratory for the respective stress test modality.

c

P value reported is for the comparison of the ratio of sex-specific rate ratios (women vs men) for assessing the likelihood of any obstructive CAD for participants who did vs did not meet trial-defined stress test criteria (moderate or severe ischemia for stress imaging, severe ischemia for nonimaging stress test, ie, exercise tolerance test).
