Note: Results are from ordinary least squares regressions predicting arteriolar and venular caliber from each SPHERE liability score, with separate regressions conducted for each SPHERE liability score.

. Model 1 controls for age and sex.

. Model 2 controls for age, sex, smoking status, BMI (body mass index), sphericity, and axial length. SPHERE = Somatic and Psychological Health Report. β=standardized beta coefficients. SE = robust standard error. Statistically significant associations are bolded.
