  • Analysis 1: using data with mRS change information available.

  • Analysis 2: sensitivity analysis, assuming the missing values of mRS change as 0 (≤0).

  • Analysis 3: sensitivity analysis, assuming the missing values of mRS change as 1 (≥1).

  • mRS change: mRS at visit 3mRS at visit 2.

  • All estimates were adjusted by age, gender, BMI, aspirin usage before randomisation, PPI usage.

  • BMI, body mass index; mRS, modified Rankin Score; PPI, proton pump inhibitor; TIA, transient ischaemic attack.
