We conducted univariate Cox regression analysis on all baseline variables. Variables with a p value less than 0.2 were selected for further Cox regression analysis. Subsequently, variables with a p-value greater than 0.05 and a change in the hazard ratio (HR) value for PPCV (after eliminating the variable) less than 10% were eliminated. Finally, we identified PPCV, AGE, RISK10YRS, Baseline DBP, SCREAT, UMALCR, N_AGENTS, SUB_CLINICALCVD as the significant variable. * N_AGENTS with 0 prescription drugs as the control group, SUB_CLINICALCVD with no history of clinical CVD as the control group, and PPCV with 0 < PPCV ≤ 15.0% as the control group
