Determinants of NO_m levels among Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction Participants

	Estimate^* (95% CI); P
Age (10-year increase)	+21% (+12%, +31%); <0.001
Race (Black versus non-Black)	−28% (−47%, −3.0%); 0.034
Current tobacco use (yes vs. no)	−5.3% (−45%, 63%); 0.85

CI, confidence interval.

Estimate corresponds to the ratio of average NO_m levels between groups, obtained by exponentiating the regression coefficient from a linear regression model for log-transformed NO_m levels and converting it to a percentage.
