^*Prediabetes includes impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance;

^**Peripheral atherosclerosis encompasses significant lesions in carotid and lower extremity arteries; AAA — abdominal aortic aneurysm; CABG — coronary artery bypass grafting; COPD — chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; EVAR — endovascular aneurysm repair; ICU — intensive care unit; MACE — major adverse cardiovascular event (MI or cardiac arrest or stroke or TIA); MI — myocardial infarction; MOF — multiple organ failure; PCI — percutaneous coronary intervention; TIA — transient ischemic attack
