DM = history of diabetes at baseline, negative (−) or positive (+)

MS = metabolic syndrome at baseline, negative (−) or positive (+)

Cox regression models adjusted for sex, age and the number of criteria met as categorical term. Hazard ratio comparing to DM−, MS− as referent

Coronary events consist of death from coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome and coronary revascularization
