a

Very small NSTEMI defined as a nonfatal incident CHD event with highest troponin level of less than 0.50 µg/L.

b

Adjusted for age and region of residence.

c

Adjusted for model 1 covariates, education level, and income.

d

Adjusted for model 2 covariates, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, smoking status, systolic blood pressure, diabetes, and use of antihypertensive and statin medications.

e

Adjusted for model 3 covariates, body mass index, estimated glomerular filtration rate of less than 60 mL/min, log-transformed high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and log-transformed albumin-to-creatinine ratio.
