Model 1: adjusted for age, sex and ethnicity. Model 2: adjusted for variables in model 1 plus drinking status, baseline CHD, baseline stroke, smoking status, DBP, and SBP. Model 3: adjusted for variables in model 2 plus ALT, eGFR, TG, HDL-C, ACEIs/ARBs, β-blockers, CCBs, diuretics, statins, AHI, nadir SaO2, mean SaO2, and regular CPAP treatment

HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval. Other abbreviations appear in Table 2
