Data presented as hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) using the first (lowest) quartile as the referent. Model 1 was adjusted by age, gender, and race; model 2 (Pooled Cohort Equation model) was model 1 plus total cholesterol, HDL-C, systolic blood pressure, anti-hypertensive medication use, current smoking, and diabetic status.
