aReference group = pro-inflammatory burden score of zero

bConditions-adjusted model was adjusted for MI, hypertension, CHF, COPD, diabetes status

cMedications-adjusted model was adjusted for NSAID, Aspirin, cox-II inhibitor, ACE inhibitors, loop diuretics, antidepressants

dMultivariate-adjusted models were adjusted for age, MI, hypertension, CHF, COPD, diabetes status, NSAID, Aspirin, cox-II inhibitor, ACE inhibitors, loop diuretics, antidepressants, self-rated health status, BMI, PASE score, walking speed

eCVD risk factors included systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol and HDL
