a

Adjusted for age only,

b

Values in bold are significant after Bonferroni correction (p<6.67×10−4),

c

Adjusted for gender only,

d

“Current” and “former” smoking were part of a three-level variable in an individual regression model, with “never” smoker considered the referent value.

See “Methods” section for more.

e

“---” indicates PE/DVT, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, PLT, MPV, pack years, or antiplatelets and anticoagulants were unavailable for these exams.

See “Methods” section for more.

*

,**,*** indicates significant interaction term with gender (*0.01≤p<0.05, **0.001≤p<0.01, ***p<0.001)
