a Risk factors were identified in the “Lifestyle study” cohort

b Validation models were run in the “UppSTART cohort”

c Single wald p-value for the pairwise comparison of having X risk factors against the reference of 0 risk factors

d Likelihood ratio test p-value for the categorical variable “number of risk factors”

e Likelihood ratio test p-value for the interaction of continuous AFC with the categorical variable “number of risk factors
