Models included the following: model 1, age, sex, education, and current occupation status; model 2, model 1 + systolic BP (millimeters of mercury); model 3, model 2 + smoking, physical activity (American Heart Association Life's Simple 7), dietary intake (American Heart Association Life's Simple 7), and alcohol use; model 4, model 3 + BMI (kilograms per square meter)d; and model 5, model 3 + adiponectin.

b

Log renin quintiles were created by combining log-transformed quintiles of PRA and ARMC.

c

P for trend was calculated using a log-rank test.

d

The BMI was calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters.
