Each row is a separate analysis;

Model 1: adjusts for age, male sex, cigarette smoking, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, serum creatinine, and the presence of aortic insufficiency.

Model 2: as in model 1 plus anti-hypertensive medication use and anti-hypertensive medication classes.

Model 3: as in model 2 plus anti-hypercholesterolemic medication use. All odds ratios are for 1 standard deviation change in the variable.

In addition to the general adjustments, this analysis was further adjusted for awake/asleep mean systolic/diastolic BP.

In addition to the general adjustments, this analysis was further adjusted for 24-hour BP.
