In model 2, we further adjusted for the use of diabetes medications,statins, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, β-blockers, andcalcium channel blockers, which may affect cardiovascular prognosis, and stillobserved a significant reduction in MACCE with anticoagulation in cluster 4 (HR:0.486, 95% CI: 0.243–0.971, p = 0.041). Here, ACE is linked to diabetes mellitus.
