  1. *Relationship of drugs with survival time was bivariately evaluated with Kaplan-Meier analysis; **relationship of drugs with mortality rate was multivariately adjusted by age, gender, body mass index, CAD, CHF, atrial fibrillation, hypertension, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, hemoglobin, albumin, glomerular filtration rate, fasting plasma glucose, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol using Cox Regression
