Preexisting CHD includes preexisting angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. Multivariate regression analysis was adjusted for age ≥75 y, sex (male), body mass index ≥25.0 kg/m2, current smoking, daily drinking, history of CHD, history of stroke, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, increase in antihypertensives, decrease in antihypertensives, and occupant‐owned housing.

CHD, coronary heart disease; CI, confidence interval.
