Through 2 years , major adverse cardiac events ( MACE ; cardiac death , MI , or target lesion revascularization [ TLR ] ) occurred in 6.8 % of EES and 19.0 % of PES jailed side branch patients ( P = 0.03 ) , with numerically lower rates of MI ( 2.9 % vs. 10.3 % , P = 0.07 ) and TLR ( 3.9 % vs. 10.3 % , P = 0.17 ) in the EES group , with comparable rates of cardiac death ( 1.9 % vs. 1.7 % , P = 1.00 ) .
