Sensitivity analyses for the association between total glucosinolate intake and coronary heart disease in three cohortsa
| Variables | Quintiles of intake
|
Ptrend | Every SD increment | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (low) | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 (high) | |||
| Using baseline glucosinolate intake as an exposure | 1 | 0.93 (0.86, 0.99) | 0.96 (0.89, 1.03) | 1.03 (0.96, 1.11) | 1.04 (0.97, 1.12) | 0.01 | 1.03 (1.01, 1.05) |
| Adjustment for major dietary factors instead of modified AHEI score | 1 | 0.95 (0.89, 1.02) | 0.98 (0.91, 1.05) | 1.04 (0.97, 1.12) | 1.06 (0.98, 1.14) | 0.02 | 1.02 (0.99, 1.04) |
| Continuing updating diet after diagnosis of cardiovascular disease or cancer | 1 | 0.96 (0.90, 1.03) | 1.01 (0.94, 1.08) | 1.06 (0.99, 1.14) | 1.10 (1.02, 1.18) | <0.001 | 1.03 (1.00, 1.05) |
| Using a 4-year lag period | 1 | 0.94 (0.87, 1.01) | 0.99 (0.92, 1.06) | 1.06 (0.98, 1.14) | 1.06 (0.99, 1.15) | 0.008 | 1.03 (1.01, 1.05) |
| Using an 8-year lag period | 1 | 0.94 (0.87, 1.02) | 0.98 (0.91, 1.06) | 1.04 (0.96, 1.13) | 1.05 (0.97, 1.14) | 0.03 | 1.03 (1.00, 1.05) |
Notes:
Estimates are calculated in Cox proportional hazards models, adjusted for age (years), ethnicity (Caucasian, African American, Asian, and other ethnicity), family history of myocardial infarction (yes/no), hypertension (yes/no), hypercholesterolemia (yes/no), smoking status (never, former, current [1–14, 15–24, or ≥25 cigarettes/day], or missing), alcohol intake (0, 0.1–4.9, 5.0–14.9, and ≥15.0 g/day for women, 0, 0.1–4.9, 5.0–29.9, and ≥30.0 g/day for men, or missing), physical activity (<3.0, 3.0–8.9, 9.0–17.9, 18.0–26.9, ≥27.0 MET-hours/week, or missing), menopausal status and postmenopausal hormone use (premenopause, postmenopause [never, former, or current hormone use], or missing, for women), oral contraceptive use (yes, no, or missing, for Nurses’ Health Study II), multivitamin use (yes/no), BMI (<23, 23–24.9, 25–29.9, 30–34.9, ≥35 kg/m2, or missing), and total energy intake (kcal/day), and the modified AHEI score (quintiles).
