Hazard ratios (HRs) and CIs were estimated by a Cox proportional hazard model. The variables were adjusted for the sex, age, and significant baseline characteristics related to each disease.
Significant baseline characteristics of ACS: known CVD history.
Significant baseline characteristics of a stroke: known CVD, AF history, and dyslipidemia Hx.
Significant baseline characteristics of HF: known CVD history and known AF history.
sBP, systolic blood pressure; dBP, diastolic blood pressure; ACS, acute coronary syndrome; HF, heart failure.
Statistical significance (P<0.05) of the difference between the two groups.
