Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier Curves Demonstrating the Efficacy of Prasugrel Versus Clopidogrel

Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrating the efficacy of prasugrel versus clopidogrel for reducing cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction (MI), or stroke by 30 days stratified by the use of a glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa inhibitor during index hospitalization (pinteraction = 0.83). CI = confidence interval; HR = hazard ratio.

Figure 2 Efficacy Outcomes Through 30 Days' Follow-Up Stratified by the Use of a GP IIb/IIIa Inhibitor During Index Hospitalization

Kaplan-Meier (K-M) event rates, HR (95% CI), and p values for the interaction between subgroups are shown. Data markers are weighted for size of subgroup. *Periprocedural MI is defined as occurring <48 h after PCI or CABG. CABG = coronary artery bypass graft surgery; CVD = cardiovascular death; PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention; other abbreviations as in Figure 1.
