The hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for every unit increase of the variables are shown. Multivariate analysis of the association between mortality and genotype, HbA1c and platelet markers, were taken with adjustment of age, sex, waist-hip ratio, blood pressure (diastolic and systolic), cholesterol (total, HDL, LDL), smoking status (categorized: non-smoker, former smoker, current smoker), alcohol intake (categorized: ≥20 g/day for women; ≥40 g/day for men), physical activity (categorized: >1 h per week).
