Fig 2 Multivariable adjusted spline curves for relation between cumulative average of dietary and total calcium intake with time to death from all causes, cardiovascular disease, ischaemic heart disease, and stroke. *Adjusted for age, total energy and vitamin D intake, healthy dietary pattern, body mass index, height, living alone, educational level, physical activity level, smoking status, use of calcium containing supplements, and score on Charlson comorbidity index. Reference value for estimation was set at 800 mg, which corresponds to the Swedish recommended level of calcium intake for women older than 50 years. The upper confidence limit for ischaemic heart disease is truncated at calcium intake levels higher than about 1800 mg/day
