Data were missing for some participants in some subgroups

OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, Apo B apolipoprotein B, apo A1 apolipoprotein A1

aAdjusted for age, sex and partnership (where applicable)

bAdjusted for body mass index, estrogen use at blood sampling, statin use, and self-reported diabetes

cAdjusted for potential mediators for apolipoprotein B (protein C, protein S, antithrombin, tissue factor pathway inhibitor, fibrinogen, factors II, VII, IX, X, and XI, clot lysis time, and c-reactive protein) or for apolipoprotein A1 (protein C, fibrinogen, factors II, VII, IX, X, and XI, and c-reactive protein)

ORa and ORab were slightly different from those depicted in Table 2 because vitamin K antagonist users at the time of blood sampling (n = 271 patients and n = 27 controls) were excluded from the mediation analyses

ORabc (further adjustment for potential mediators) is in bold
