  1. Median values (25, 75 percentiles) are given.
  2. * refers to differences between groups at baseline (p <0.01).
  3. p1 and p2 refer to differences from baseline to 12 months in the aspirin and clopidogrel groups, respectively. Δ p refer to difference in changes between groups from baseline to 12 months.
  4. † refers to difference in relative changes from baseline to 12 months
