Hazard ratios for late type 2 diabetes according to quartiles of age at PHV in 24,513 Swedish men

Age at PHV quartiles Range for age at PHV Events HR (95% CI)
Base model Adjusted for cBMI
Q1 (n = 6128) vs Q4 9.3–13.4 278 1.33 (1.11, 1.59) 1.27 (1.05, 1.52)
Q2 (n = 6128) vs Q4 13.4–14.1 253 1.25 (1.04, 1.51) 1.22 (1.01, 1.47)
Q3 (n = 6129) vs Q4 14.1–14.8 193 0.97 (0.80, 1.18) 0.96 (0.79, 1.17)
Q4 (n = 6128) 14.8–17.9 201 Reference Reference

HRs (95% CI) for late type 2 diabetes for Q2–Q4 according to age at PHV with Q1 as reference were calculated using Cox proportional hazards regression. The base model is adjusted for birth year and country of birth while the adjusted model also includes childhood BMI as a covariate. Cases of type 2 diabetes diagnosis n = 925, total number in analysis N = 24,513
