CAG coronary angiography, CI confidence interval, CIP cumulative incidence proportion, HR hazard ratio

aLimited to the 75th percentile of follow-up (10 years). In myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke, accounting for the competing risk of death

bAdjusted for myocardial infarction within 30 days of angiography, statin treatment, oral anticoagulant treatment, and antiplatelet treatment

cAdjusted for peripheral artery disease, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, myocardial infarction within 30 days of angiography, statin treatment, oral anticoagulant treatment, and antiplatelet treatment. In case of ischemic stroke and death, additionally adjusted for congestive heart failure, previous ischemic stroke/TIA, and atrial fibrillation
