  1. Data are presented as the numbers (No.) and percentages (%). Analysis parameters with statistically significant differences are shown in bold
  2. *Revascularization includes both percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass grafting
  3. ‡5-year rehospitalization and all-cause mortality incidences are shown as numbers and percentages. Cumulative risk was calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, with P-values from the log-rank test, as shown in Fig. 3
  4. ILD = interstitial lung disease, CAD = coronary artery disease; CAG = coronary angiography
