Model 1, adjusted for age, sex, and education. Model 2, model 1+physical activity+smoking+nutrition+alcohol use. Model 3, model 2+hypertension+diabetes mellitus+body mass index+cholesterol. Model 4, model 3+global perceived stress. CHD indicates coronary heart disease; GSS, goal‐striving stress; HR, hazard ratio; and JHS, Jackson Heart Study.
a
Event surveillance through 2015 via medical record review starting in 2000. Nonproportional hazard model used to account for covariates that violated the proportional hazards assumption (age and nutrition). A total of 142 observations were removed because of history of CHD.
b
Statistical significance (P<0.05).
