Variables with no value in any of the columns are those with a p-value > 0.20 in a first univariable logistic regression and which were not identified as potential confounders, as detailed in methods.
95% CI: 95% confidence interval; CVD: cardiovascular disease; OR: odds ratio; PCP: primary care physician.
Defined as screening for smoking, hypertension, dyslipidaemia and diabetes mellitus by the same physician.
