Multivariate models include covariates significant in univariate analyses at p ≤ 0.05 at each baseline examination year. In 1968, covariates included age, education, systolic blood pressure, serum cholesterol, and serum triglycerides. In 1974, covariates included age, education, systolic blood pressure, serum cholesterol, and serum triglycerides. In 1980, covariates included age, education, systolic blood pressure, serum glucose, serum cholesterol, and serum triglycerides. In 1992, covariates included age, education, wine and spirit intake, and cholesterol. In 2000, covariates included age, education, and serum triglycerides.
