FIGURE 1.

Associations of yogurt (A, B) and total milk (C, D) consumption with mortality from CVD and all causes in 4365 patients from the Alpha Omega Cohort. Lines are restricted cubic splines, showing continuous associations, with 3 knots located at the 5^th, 50^th, and 95^th percentiles. The y-axis shows the predicted HRs for mortality for any value of intake, compared with the reference value set at the median intake. HRs are adjusted for energy intake, age, sex, smoking, physical activity, alcohol intake, diabetes, and dietary factors (see text). Continuous covariates were modeled using restricted cubic splines (knots at the 5^th, 50^th, and 95^th percentiles). CVD, cardiovascular disease.
