Using proportional hazards regression and a propensity score analysis, the authors found no significant associations between ACEI use and mortality, CV hospitalization, and other CV outcomes.
Cox proportional-hazard regression models were used to examine the multivariable-adjusted association between site and 1-year death or repeat cardiovascular (CV) hospitalization (primary endpoint).Of 14,155 patients, 1938 (13.7%) were admitted to a community hospital without transfer to an invasive hospital (10.7% in-hospital death).
One secondary outcome, the rate of death or CV hospitalization, was significantly reduced from 58.1% to 51.7% (HR0.83, CI 0.74-0.93, p=0.001).
Time to event was examined using Kaplan-Meier methods for 5 end points: death; death or nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI); death, MI, or revascularization; death or hospitalization; and cardiovascular (CV) death or CV hospitalization.
In conclusion, in patients with CAD, AP was associated with similar risk for CV hospitalization and revascularization and lower all-cause mortality compared with patients without AP regardless of DM status.
The adjusted risk of death (hazard ratio [HR], 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.52 to 1.18; P=0.2) and cardiovascular (CV) hospitalization (HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.90 to 1.26; P=0.5) were similar in both groups.

'Major CV events' were defined as any of the endpoints described earlier, that is: CV hospitalizations, additional CV events occurring while in hospital, CV events not requiring hospitalisation, and CV deaths.
The main finding of this ATHENA post hoc analysis is that dronedarone reduces the number of CV hospitalizations and reduces the length of hospital stay for CV reasons.
Covariates included in the models were demographics (age and sex), statin treatment before hospital admission, diabetes, previous cardiovascular (CV) hospitalizations, chronic kidney disease (CKD), statin treatment during hospitalization, concomitant antihypertensive and antithrombotic treatments, and statin prescribed during the follow-up.
About half of the CV hospitalizations were AF-related, with a median duration of hospital stay of four nights.
There was no difference in CV hospitalizations.

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
