Abbreviations: MACE, major adverse cardiac events; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention.

a

Risk differences were estimated from weighted cumulative incidence curves along with 95% CIs generated in 2000 bootstrap resamples.

b

Hazard ratios and 95% CIs were estimated from weighted cause-specific proportional hazards models.

c

MACE was defined by death, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, or urgent coronary revascularization.

d

Urgent coronary revascularization was defined as unplanned hospitalization with percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting occurring during the same hospitalization.
