Number of Participants With First Occurrence of Cardiovascular (CV) Mortality or Hospitalization Due to Heart Failure (HF)

CV mortality was defined as any death due to HF, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrhythmia, stroke or cerebral vascular accident, other CV cause (such as aneurysm or pulmonary embolism). Hospitalization due to HF was defined as an overnight stay, or longer, in a hospital environment (emergency room, observation unit or in-patient care, or similar facility including admission to a day care facility) due to HF. Hazard ratio of Eplerenone versus placebo for first occurrence of the event was obtained from a Cox proportional hazards model.

Time frame: Randomization up to the date when the last enrolled participant had been followed up for 1 year (up to 1744 days)

Specific activity scale was estimated by pre-specified questionnaire (for different activities) to assess the exercise capability of the participants. Answers provided by participants were transformed in terms of number of metabolic equivalents (METs).1 MET was defined as the amount of oxygen consumed while sitting at rest and is equal to 3.5 ml oxygen per kg body weight\* minute. Scale ranged from 1 (less than (\<) 2 METs) = lowest level of exercise tolerance to 6 (\>=8METs) = highest level of tolerance and higher score indicated more tolerance.

NYHA: classified as 'class I' (participants with cardiac disease but without resulting limitations of physical activity), 'class II' (participants with cardiac disease resulting in slight limitation of physical activity), 'class III' (participants with cardiac disease resulting in marked limitation of physical activity), 'class IV' (participants with cardiac disease resulting in inability to carry on any physical activity without discomfort). Participants with change from baseline were classified as 'improved' (positive change), 'no change' or 'worsened' (negative change).

Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 1, 4, Months 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29, 33, 37, 42, 48 and Final Visit (up to Month 48)

Population: Full analysis set included all randomized participants. Here, 'n' signifies those participants who were evaluable at specified time point for each arm, respectively.

Number of Participants With With First Occurrence of All-Cause Mortality

All-cause mortality was defined as any CV mortality, Non-CV mortality, including malignant tumor, pulmonary disease and trauma.CV mortality was defined as death due to HF, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrhythmia, stroke or cerebral vascular accident, other CV cause (such as aneurysm or pulmonary embolism). Mortality during treatment, within 30 days of treatment discontinuation and after 30 days of discontinuation was reported. Hazard ratio of Eplerenone versus placebo for first occurrence of the event was obtained from a Cox proportional hazards model.

Time frame: Randomization up to the date when the last enrolled participant had been followed up for 1 year (up to 1744 days)

Population: Full analysis set included all randomized participants.

Number of Participants With With First Occurrence of Cardiovascular Mortality

CV mortality was defined as death due to HF, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrhythmia, stroke or cerebral vascular accident, other CV cause (such as aneurysm or pulmonary embolism).
