Between the 2 AAR groups we found further statistically significant differences in other vascular endpoints (prior myocardial infarction 54 [3.9%] vs 28 [7.1%], P = 0.01) and in inflammatory parameters (C-reactive protein [CRP] [median 4.3 mg/L (2.0–11.5) vs 8.1 mg/L (2.9–28.23)] and fibrinogen [median 388.0 mg/dL (327.0–493.0) vs 427.5 mg/dL (344.25–530.0)]; both P < 0.001) as well (Table 2). Here, CRP is linked to myocardial infarction.
