1

Modeled as a restricted cubic spline.

2

Note: There is a sex by modality interaction term in model. The odds ratios for modality by sex are not presented in this table due to the modality specific covariates.

The sex by modality interaction p-value in LM>= 50% model is: 0.15

3

Modeled as a linear spline.

Cindex for Left main stenosis ≥ 50%: 0.684

Joint test for Imaging and Stress Test variables is: <.001

ETT = exercise tolerance testing (non-imaging); METs = metabolic equivalents achieved during stress testing
