CVD is defined as a presence of either coronary heart disease, or heart failure, or stroke, or QRS duration ≥120 ms. Left ventricular hypertrophy defined as sex‐specific Cornell product >2440 mm×ms. IACB, interatrial conduction block. # model was adjusted by sex, race, age, and CVD only. CHD indicates coronary heart disease; CVD, cardiovascular disease; LVH, left ventricular hypertrophy SCD, sudden cardiac death.
