Abbreviations: CVD, cardiovascular disease; HR, hazard ratio; NA, not applicable.
Model 1: adjusted for age and sex.
Model 2: adjusted for age, sex, residence, educational level, smoking status, and current drinking status.
P value for trend was calculated using the frequency of witnessing interparental violence as a continuous variable.
Heart disease included myocardial infarction, angina, coronary heart disease, heart failure, or other heart problems.
