a All models adjusted for date of assessment visit, average temperature, age, BMI, smoking, and employment status (random factor: participant). b Estimates expressed as a difference in cardiovascular endpoint for each SD increment in exposure. c Additionally adjusted for hours of sleep at night. d Additionally adjusted for hours of sleep at night and urine creatinine.
