HRs were estimated by Cox proportional risk model. Model 1 was adjusted for age, TDI, race, smoking history, education level, alcohol use, BMI, BG, SBP, DBP and TG; model 2 was the same as model 1 with the addition of adjustment for gender.
BG, blood glucose; BMI, body mass index; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; MI, myocardial infarction; Re, reference; SBP, systolic blood pressure; TDI, Townsend Deprivation Index; TG, triglycerides.
