Values are presented as hazard ratios (95% confidence interval). Reference group: FPG <5.6 mmol/L, 2hPG <7.8 mmol/L. Model 1, adjusted for age, sex, and study center. Model 2, adjusted for age, sex, study center, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, and smoking status.

CVD, cardiovascular disease; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; 2hPG, 2-hour glucose after 75 g glucose loading; DM, diabetes mellitus.
