A–E Mean (± SD) values for selected risk factors during the interventional part of the study for patients under Standard of Care (SoC) treatment (grey lines) and multifactorial therapy (MT) (black lines). Mean values were obtained at baseline, after 1-year, after 2-years and at end of interventional period (3.84 years in MT and 3.40 years in SoC). At these intervals, the total numbers of patients in both study groups were 395, 380, 372, and 368, respectively
