The cohort has 4,632 patients in total. Data for continuous variables were presented as median (IQR), and data for categorical variables were presented as number of percentages, n (%). Cardiac events: 5 hospital diagnosed outcomes by ICD 9/10 codes, including AF, CAD, HF, MI, and stroke. De novo CTRCD: The patient has at least one type of cardiac events diagnosed after cancer therapy.

AF, atrial fibrillation; BMI, body mass index; CAD, coronary artery disease; CTRCD, cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction; HF, heart failure; IQR, interquartile range; MI, myocardial infarction.
