a
RR estimates evaluated at the specified percentiles of the BG covariate.
b
Univariate models estimate the BG AMI mortality risk associated with the covariate relative to Arkansas age‐ and sex‐specific rates. LCB/UCB: lower and upper 95% confidence bounds.
c
Multivariate model estimates the BG AMI mortality risk associated with the covariate after adjusting for the covariates that precede it in the table.
