In a study investigating obesity and myocardial infarction (MI), the following results were obtained. Amongst participants with obesity, a total of 80 MI occurred. Amongst normal weight participants, a total of 40 MI occurred. The group with obesity accumulated 90,000 person-years and the normal weight group 175,000 person-years during the study period.
Calculate the incidence rate difference (per 100,000 person-years).
Please write only the number expressed in decimals and rounded to two decimal places. No text is required.
