  Fig. 1. Cumulative incident of death (A and D), long-term nursing home placement (B and E), and impoverishment (C and F) after up to 1 year and 10 years of follow-up among Medicare beneficiaries with and without recurrent MI.

  Fig. 2. Association of recurrent MI with death (A), long-term nursing home placement (B), and impoverishment (C) over time since recurrent MI among Medicare beneficiaries. Adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, area-level median income, alcohol and tobacco use, primary versus secondary diagnosis position for initial MI, coronary revascularization during hospitalization for initial MI, history of diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, stroke, heart failure, peripheral artery disease, depression, and dementia, frailty, cardiologist care, cardiac rehabilitation, any hospitalization within the past year, statin use and intensity (i.e., no statin use, use of low/moderate-intensity statins, use of high-intensity statins), non-statin lipid lowering therapy, use of beta-blocker, antiplatelet agents, prevalent nursing home residence (mortality and impoverishment outcomes), and prevalent impoverishment (mortality and long-term nursing home placement outcomes), baseline hazard allowed to vary across states. The multivariable-adjusted HR for impoverishment after 731 days of follow-up could not be estimated because of the small number of cases in the recurrent MI cohort.

  Fig. 3. Characteristics associated with death (A), long-term nursing home placement (B), and impoverishment (C) among Medicare beneficiaries with recurrent myocardial infarction Hazard ratios calculated using Cox proportional hazards models include all characteristics listed. Baseline hazards were allowed to vary by state.
