  • * Comparison using no previous other ATD group as reference for each category, p value<0.05.

  • Pairwise comparison between groups with previous ATD history, p value <0.05.

  • ATD, atherothrombotic disease; CeVD, cerebrovascular disease; CHD, coronary heart disease; PAD, peripheral arterial disease.
