Data are n (%) or mean (SD) except where otherwise stated. Percentages are calculated as a proportion of the included study population; individuals with a previous acute myocardial infarction or stroke were excluded from the study. Day 0 is excluded from the study period due to risk of selection bias. OR=odds ratio. wCCI=weighted Charlson Comorbidity Index.
