Table 4. Interactions between ideal cardiovascular health indicators and covariates*.

Variable (p-value for interaction) Stratum Odds ratio for disability 95% CI p-value
Predictor: Ideal CVH score:
Cardiac disease (p = 0.007) Absent 0.87 0.79–0.95 0.003
Present 1.19 0.93–1.52 0.16
Stroke (p = 0.12) Absent 0.89 0.82–0.97 0.01
Present 2.12 0.93–4.85 0.07
Predictor: number of ideal CVH indicators:
Cardiac disease (p = 0.01) Absent 0.79 0.68–0.92 0.003
Present 1.73 1.05–2.85 0.03
Stroke (p = 0.11) Absent 0.84 0.72–0.97 0.02
Present 1.54 0.63–3.78 0.3

†CVH = cardiovascular health

*Models are adjusted for: age, marital status, arthritis, asthma, stroke, visual impairment, socioeconomic status, and cardiac disease–minus the stratifying variable
