Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) are per one standard deviation of the measure. Values shown are adjusted for age, gender, systolic blood pressure, use of antihypertensive medications, diabetes status, and current smoking status.

Values for PC1, PC2, PC3 were calculated in a single regression model including all three PCs.
