Risk of all-cause and cause-specific cardiometabolic mortality by vegetable intake amount, 1999–2011 (n = 29,133). Reference group is individuals consuming the greatest vegetable amount (mean = 2.90 cup-eq./day, 95% CI = 2.86–2.93 cup-eq./day); intermediate: 0.89 cup-eq./day (0.88–0.90 cup-eq./day); least: 0 cup-eq./day. CMD, cardiometabolic disease (CVD + diabetes); CVD, cardiovascular disease (CHD + stroke); CHD, coronary heart disease; ICD-10 codes: Coronary heart disease (I00–I09, I11, I13, I20–I51), stroke (I60–I69), diabetes (E10–E14); Cox proportional hazards model, adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, smoking status, cardiometabolic medications, income-to-poverty ratio, body mass index, intake of added sugars, and intake of unsaturated-to-saturated fatty acid ratio. * Significantly different than individuals consuming the greatest vegetable variety for the same event at p < 0.05 (Bonferroni adjusted). 95% CIs not adjusted for multiple comparisons. ** Significantly different than individuals consuming the greatest vegetable variety for the same event at p < 0.01 (Bonferroni adjusted). 95% CIs not adjusted for multiple comparisons.
