MI before study | 31 (11) | 158 (14) | 96 (15) | 0.46 |
MI during follow-up | 3 (1) | 4 (1) | 17 (3) | <0.0001 |
CHD death during follow-up | 0 (0) | 0 (0) | 5 (1) | 0.003 |
Total CHD event† | 3 (1) | 4 (1) | 22 (3) | <0.0001 |
Values are n (%), mean ± SD, or geometric mean (95% CI).
Participant characteristics were compared between genotypes by using a general linear model for continuous variables and chi-square tests for categorical variables, unless there was a cell with n < 5, in which case the Fisher exact test was used. For skewed variables (time since diabetes diagnosis and HbA1c), p values from log-transformed analyses and geometric means with reverse-transformed 95% CIs are displayed.
Myocardial infarction (MI) or coronary heart disease (CHD) death during follow-up.
