^{^a}

If variable had p value<0.20 in unadjusted (univariate) analysis, it was considered in final (multivariate) model.

^{^b}

Final model was adjusted for known predictors of cardiovascular disease, including age, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, family history of CAD, hormone therapy, and dyslipidemia.

CI, confidence interval; ECG, electrocardiogram; OR, odds ratio.
