Time-to-Event Curves for MACE Rates According to Baseline Plaque Characteristics, PSS, and PSS Heterogeneity Index Groups
Cumulative MACE probability for (A) all plaques, (B) VH-TCFAs, (C) plaques with PB ≥ 70% at the MLA, (D) plaques with MLA ≤4mm2, (E) VH-TCFA + MLA ≤4 mm2, and (F) VH-TCFA + PB ≥70% according to the presence or absence of high PSS or high HI. All plaques = 101 (100%); VH-TCFA = 51 (50.5%); MLA ≤4 mm2 = 47 (46.5%); VH-TCFA + MLA ≤4 mm2 = 20 (19.8%); PB ≥70% at the MLA = 55 (54.5%); VH-TCFA+PB≥70% = 21 (20.8%). HI = heterogeneity index; other abbreviations as in Figures 1 and 3.
