Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; CV, cardiovascular; HR, Hazard Ratios. Other abbreviations as table 1. Covariates in the multivariate model for overall mortality included significant clinical variables in the univariate analysis, which consisted of age, diabetes mellitus, systolic blood pressure, albumin, triglyceride, and using of calcium channel blockers. Covariates in the multivariable model for CV mortality included significant clinical variables in the univariate analysis, which consisted of age, diabetes mellitus, albumin, and triglyceride.
