The primary outcome of the study was the occurrence of a composite CV endpoint, which included coronary revascularization, hospitalization due to myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and transient ischemic attack.

Compared with allopurinol initiators, the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of the composite CV endpoint of benzbromarone initiators was 1.01 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.83\u22121.21], which was not significantly different.
