Subclinical brain lesions and stroke risk by race/ethnicity. WMHV represents associations using the natural log‐transformed continuous variable (lnWMHV, 1/TIV%, 1/TIV%) per standard deviation. SBI represents association for SBI presence vs absence. *P<0.05. ^†HRs and 95% CIs were estimated using Cox proportional hazards models, adjusted for age, sex, race‐ethnicity, education, medical insurance status, body mass index, smoking, physical activity, moderate alcohol drinking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, history of atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease, and myocardial infarction. Additional information can be found in Table S3. CI indicates confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; NH, non‐Hispanic; SBI, subclinical brain infarction; TIV, total intracranial volume; WMHV, white matter hyperintensity volume.
