AMI: acute myocardial infarction patients; NCC: subjects dead for noncardiac causes; SVR: patients survived to a first AMI. Data are absolute numbers (percentage). Abbreviations: CABG: coronary artery bypass graft; EF: ejection fraction; LIMA: left internal mammary artery; LVEDV: left ventricle end-diastolic volume; LVESV: left ventricle end-systolic volume; MI: myocardial infarction; PTCA: percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty; SE: standard error.
