Table 2. Age- and Sex-adjusted HRs and their 95% CIs for Youth Risk Factors (Year 1986) in Predicting Adult Cancer.

HR (95% CI) P value
AHA score 0.96 (0.78-1.12) 0.66
Ideal health metrics
     Total cholesterol 0.99 (0.60-1.60) 0.95
     Blood pressure 1.29 (0.75-2.21) 0.37
     Glucose 0.73 (0.18-3.01) 0.66
     Nonsmoking 0.79 (0.47-1.34) 0.38
     Physical activity 0.45 (0.23-0.88) 0.019
     Diet 1.40 (0.84-2.36) 0.20
     BMI 1.02 (0.53-1.95) 0.95

HRs for 1-point increment in AHA score variable and one category change in categorical study variables. P values are from age- and sex-adjusted Cox’s regression analyses. N=1873 in all categories. AHA ICH was modelled in its own model and its each health metric components were each modeled separately in own models.
