HRs from multivariable adjusted model of total, ASCVD, and IHD death by DBP categories stratified by sex and age. Multivariable adjusted HRs for total, ASCVD, and IHD mortality by 8 categories of DBP stratified by sex and age. The referent category for DBP was 70–79 mmHg. Each dot indicates HRs, and vertical lines over the dots mean 95% CIs. Age was divided into 2 groups: 30–59 years and 60 years or older (range: 60–95 years). (A, C, E) Blue line shows results in men, and orange line in women. (B, D, F) Blue line means ≥60 years age group, and orange line means 30–59 years age group. The y-axis scale was different for the 3 outcomes (0–2.0 or 0–2.5).
ASCVD = atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases; CI = confidence interval; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; HR = hazard ratio; IHD = ischemic heart disease.
