| No CHD | CHD regression coefficients (95% CI) | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| TR (temperature rebound) | |||
| Model 1 | 0 (ref group) | –0.98 (–1.76, –0.20) | 0.014 |
| Model 2 | 0 (ref group) | –1.13 (–2.08, –0.18) | 0.020 |
| Model 3 | 0 (ref group) | –0.91 (–1.73, –0.08) | 0.033 |
| NP (nadir to peak) | |||
| Model 1 | 0 (ref group) | –0.84 (–1.60, –0.08) | 0.030 |
| Model 2 | 0 (ref group) | –1.00 (–1.91, –0.11) | 0.029 |
| Model 3 | 0 (ref group) | –0.79 (–1.58, –0.08) | 0.048 |
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.
