Multivariable‐Adjusted Hazard Ratios and 95% Confidence Intervals for the Association of Intakes of Cruciferous, Allium, and Total Vegetables With Ischemic Heart Disease Mortality and Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease Mortalitya

All Participants (N=1226) P Value
Ischemic heart disease mortality, No. (%) 128 (10.4)
Cruciferous vegetables 0.83 (0.75–0.92) <0.001
Allium vegetables 0.82 (0.70–0.97) 0.022
Total vegetables 0.82 (0.67–1.00) 0.050
Ischemic cerebrovascular disease mortality, No. (%) 92 (7.5)
Cruciferous vegetables 0.94 (0.84–1.05) 0.299
Allium vegetables 0.75 (0.60–0.93) 0.011
Total vegetables 0.80 (0.62–1.02) 0.074

Results are presented as hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) using multivariable‐adjusted Cox proportional hazards modeling per 10 g/d for cruciferous vegetables, per 5 g/d for allium vegetables, and per 75 g/d for total vegetables. Cruciferous vegetables included cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and broccoli. Allium vegetables included onion, leek, and garlic. The multivariable‐adjusted model included age, body mass index, physical activity, alcohol intake, smoking history, socioeconomic status, calcium supplementation group, antihypertensive medication, statin medication, low‐dose aspirin, Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration estimated glomerular filtration rate, and energy intake.
