Overall, the exacerbation rate was numerically greater but did not reach statistical significance when compared with matched patients in the reference group (1.31 [95% CI: 0.97, 1.76], p = 0.081).

While both groups demonstrated a clear trend towards greater exacerbation rates (1.41 [95% CI: 0.91, 2.19], p = 0.124 and 1.35 [95% CI: 0.99, 1.84], p = 0.054, respectively) in comparison with the reference group, this did not reach statistical significance (Fig. 3 ).
