Adjusted cumulative hazard curves for 8-year MI, stroke, and all-cause mortality by change in fasting glucose. Hazard ration analyzed by Cox proportional hazards regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, socioeconomic status, physical activity, smoking status, alcohol consumption, body mass index, blood pressure, total cholesterol, Charlson comorbidity index, and baseline fasting glucose level. MI myocardial infarction, NFG normal fasting glucose, IFG impaired fasting glucose, DFG diabetic fasting glucose. a Cumulative hazard of MI among individuals with NFG at the 1st examination. b Cumulative hazard of stroke among individuals with NFG at the 1st examination. c Cumulative hazard of all-cause mortality among individuals with NFG at the 1st examination. d Cumulative hazard of MI among individuals with IFG at the 1st examination. e Cumulative hazard of stroke among individuals with IFG at the 1st examination. f Cumulative hazard of all-cause mortality among individuals with IFG at the 1st examination
