Model1 adjusted for age and sex.

Model 2 adjusted for age, sex, dyslipidemia, current smoking, diabetes, hypertension, Body mass index, 5 kg/m², Activity score (Q1–Q4), FH of MI and socioeconomic status (3–27).

The predictors (somatic and cognitive subscale) were entered together in each regression analyses.

Data presented are non-standardized Betas.

Model 2 R² for baseline diameter 59.6%, FMD 14.6%.
