Model 1: Adjusted for age and time-varying effects for enrollment in extended follow-up and stratified by treatment arm.

Model 2: Model 1 and socioeconomic factors (marital/partnership status, highest level of attained education, household income, region of residence, last usual medical care provider visit within last year).

Model 3: Model 2 and stroke risk factors (smoking status, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, hypertension status, anti-hypertensive medication, hyperlipidemia medication, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, history of cancer, BMI, hormone therapy use, alcohol consumption, weekly minutes of physical activity, Healthy Eating Index-2005 score and family history of stroke).
