Poisson regression for event rate analysis

Model 1: age and gender

Model 2: diabetes

Model 3: age, gender, use of anti-platelets, and existing diabetes, hypertension, myocardial infarction/congestive heart failure, and stroke

inadequate number of event for stratification

Cardiovascular events defined as a composite outcome of myocardial infarction, heart failure and ischemic stroke. HR = Hazard Ratio; CI = Confidence Interval; CKD = Chronic Kidney Disease; ESRD = End-stage Renal Disease; IRR= Incident Rate Ratio
