Odds ratio (95% confidence interval) adjusted for age, gender, ethnicity, study center, systolic and diastolic blood pressure (except for hypertension), education status (except for education), and serum levels of creatinine (except for renal dysfunction), renal dysfunction (except for creatinine), homocysteine (except for hyperhomocysteinemia), and triglyceride (except for hypertriglyceridemia)
