Hazard Ratios and 95% Confidence Intervals for the Best Predictive Model for ASVD Mortality Including Multivariable‐Adjusted Variables and Intakes of Cruciferous, Allium, and Total Vegetablesa

All Participants (N=1226) P Value
Age, y 1.17 (1.11–1.23) <0.001
BMI, kg/m2 1.04 (1.01–1.07) 0.016
Antihypertensive medication (yes/no) 1.64 (1.24–2.16) <0.001
Cruciferous vegetable intake, per 10 g/d 0.88 (0.82–0.94) <0.001
Allium vegetable intake, per 5 g/d 0.86 (0.76–0.97) 0.014

ASVD indicates atherosclerotic vascular disease.

Results are presented as hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) using forward stepwise Cox proportional hazards modeling. Cruciferous vegetables included cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and broccoli. Allium vegetables included onion, leek, and garlic. Forward stepwise Cox proportional hazards model included age, body mass index (BMI), 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, and intakes of cruciferous, allium, and total vegetables.
