Table 6. Mortality hazard association with ABSI from HALS1 and HALS2.

Hazard ratio per SD increase
ABSI1 1.09 (1.04–1.14)
ABSI2 1.17 (1.12–1.23)
ΔABSI 1.05 (1.01–1.10)
Combined A:
ABSI1 1.19 (1.13–1.26)
ΔABSI 1.16 (1.10–1.22)
Combined B:
ΔABSI 0.97 (0.92–1.02)
ABSI2 1.19 (1.13–1.26)
Combined C:
ABSI1 1.03 (0.98–1.08)
ABSI2 1.16 (1.10–1.22)

Results of Cox proportional hazard modeling for mortality risk with ABSI1 or ABSI2 (ABSI from HALS1 or HALS2 measurements, respectively) or ΔABSI (ABSI2 minus ABSI1), or combinations thereof, taken as linear predictors. Ranges in parentheses are 95% confidence intervals. Only the subsample with measurements in both HALS1 and HALS2 is used (Inline graphic; 1094 deaths).

SD = standard deviation.
