Conditioned on age and date of baseline blood collection.

c

Conditioned on age and date of baseline blood collection and adjusted for hypertension, BMI, and cigarettes smoked per day.

d

Conditioned on age and date of baseline blood collection and adjusted for hypertension, BMI, and cigarettes smoked per day. Models are mutually adjusted for DBP and 25(OH)D.
