a

Adjusted for birth year and DES cohort.

b

Adjusted for birth year, cohort, BMI, smoking status, alcohol use, education, number of general physical examinations, age at menarche, menopausal status, and postmenopausal hormone use.

c

Includes women with CAD, MI, and/or stroke; the number of cases for the CVD category does not match the sum of the individual conditions because participants could have multiple conditions.
