  1. Abbreviations: ICI immune checkpoint inhibitor, CAC coronary artery calcium, SE standard error, PSM propensity score matching
  2. Model 1 is adjusted for sex, age, and history of cardiovascular disease
  3. Model 2 is adjusted for body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, smoking index, hyperlipidemia, chest radiation therapy, statins, aspirin, hemoglobin, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet count to lymphocyte ratio in addition to the variables in the model 1
  4. Model 3 is adjusted for baseline coronary artery calcium volume and score, in addition to the variables in the model 2
