Regression coefficients represent mean differences in TR & NP after adjusting for covariates.

Model 1: adjusted for age and sex.

Model 2: adjusted for age, sex, BMI, cigarette smoking status, diabetes, systolic blood pressure, anti-hypertensive medications, LDL, TG, HDL, BP medications and lipid-lowering medications.

Model 3: adjusted for FRS, BP medications and lipid-lowering medications.
