Question:

Medical researchers performed a comparison of two drugs, clopidogrel and ticagrelor, which are designed to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in coronary patients. A total of 6676 patients were given clopidogrel, and 6732 were given ticagrelor. Of the clopidogrel patients, 668 suffered a heart attack or stroke within one year, and of the ticagrelor patients, 569 suffered a heart attack or stroke. Can you conclude that the proportion of patients suffering a heart attack or stroke is less for ticagrelor? Use the α = 0.01 level.
