Abbreviations: HFpEF, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction; HFrEF, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.

a

Model 1 was age adjusted. Model 2 was adjusted for age, waist, education, income, region, smoking, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, hypertension treatment, diabetes, enrollment in observational study vs randomized clinical trial, and use of lipid medications. Model 3 was model 2, further adjusted for baseline glomerular filtration rate. All values are with reference to the low-risk APOL1 variant carrier group.

b

Among individuals without prevalent CVD.

c

n = 10 971.

d

n = 10 961.
