Association and Prediction Measures From the 3 Candidate Cox Models for Cardiac Events

Model 1 Model 2 Model 3
Hazard Ratio (95% CI)
Age, per y 0.982 (0.959, 1.006) 0.977 (0.954, 1.001) 0.973 (0.950, 0.997)
Diabetes (vs none) 1.785 (1.197, 2.661) 1.623 (1.079, 2.442) 1.590 (1.059, 2.385)

CACS 100 to 400 (vs <400) 2.018 (1.180, 3.451) 2.122 (1.236, 3.642)
CACS >400 (vs <400) 2.049 (1.203, 3.489) 2.185 (1.285, 3.715)
Nonculprit CT-HRP (vs none) 2.202 (1.237, 3.918)
Harrell’s C, % (bootstrap SE)* 60.67 (3.36) 63.19 (2.83) 65.81 (2.69)
Two-sided P for c-increment* 0.336 0.144
Minus-2 times log likelihood 1048.6 1039.4 1033.3
Likelihood ratio P 0.010 0.049

CACS indicates coronary artery calcium score; CT-HRP, computed tomography–verified high-risk plaque; SE, standard error.
