Values are odds ratios (95% confidence intervals).
ADL, activities of daily living; BI, Barthel Index; CT, computed tomography; FAI, Frenchay Activities Index; mRS, (modified) Rankin Scale; NE, variable not entered in the multivariate analysis; OR, odds ratio; VE, vascular event.
All variables in the univariate analysis were adjusted for sex and age.
*Age was entered as a continuous variable; the increase in hazard is for every 10 years.
†Variable was measured at baseline.
‡Variable was measured during follow‐up.
