Incident CVD was defined for time to first event of myocardial infarction, coronary insufficiency, angina pectoris, atherothrombotic brain infarction, coronary heart disease death, intermittent claudication, congestive heart failure, or transient ischemic attack in the absence of a previous manifestation of any of these diseases. CI indicates confidence interval; CVD, cardiovascular disease; and HR, hazard ratio.
