Multivariable Cox Proportional Hazards Regression Showing Significant Predictors of Incident CVD After Adjustment for Traditional Risk Factors
| Variables | Model 1 | Model 2 | Model 3 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HR (95% CI) | P Value | HR (95% CI) | P Value | HR (95% CI) | P Value | |
| A‐FABP* | — | — | 1.50 (1.04 to 2.15) | 0.029 | 1.42 (0.98 to 2.04) | 0.064 |
| C‐reactive protein* | 1.30 (1.12 to 1.52) | 0.001 | — | — | 1.29 (1.10 to 1.50) | 0.001 |
Models were adjusted for the traditional risk factors including age, sex, BMI, smoking status, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. CVD indicates cardiovascular disease; HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; A‐FABP, adipocyte‐fatty acid binding protein. Bold used to highlight those p‐values<0.05.
