Comparative Determinants of 4-Year Cardiovascular Event Rates in Stable Outpatients at Risk of or With Atherothrombosis

Abstract

Patients with atherothrombosis are at elevated risk of ischemic events but, depending on their specific manifestations of atherothrombosis, may have varying degrees of future risk for ischemic events. Accurate knowledge of the major determinants of subsequent ischemic risk would be extremely useful, both for clinical and investigational purposes.
