Abbreviations: CI = confidence interval. Cumulative incidence estimates of heart diseases in all breast cancer patients (N = 8015) at different time-points following the index date ( = date of diagnosis in breast cancer patients). Cumulative incidence estimates are obtained from Aalen-Johansen estimation.
