Figure 2 Risk-Adjusted Annual Mortality (95% Confidence Intervals) by the Number of Calcified Lesions
This figure plots predicted or risk-adjusted annual mortality rates, including 95% confidence intervals, by the number of calcified lesions. These results are based on data from a Cox proportional hazards multivariable model that included the number of calcified lesions plus cardiac risk factors. There is a directly proportional relationship between mortality risk and the number of calcified lesions such that mortality rates increase in patients with more frequent calcified lesions.
