Notes:

*

For MI, adjusting for age, sex, and previous history of MI. For stroke, adjusting for age, sex, and previous history of cerebrovascular disease. GEE analysis was performed to adjust for correlation within matched pairs.

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; GEE, generalized estimating equations; MI, myocardial infarction; OR, odds ratio.
