Hazard ratios (HRs) are given for a 1‐SD increase in the proteins. Only proteins with age‐ or sex‐adjusted P value <0.000625 and a multi‐adjusted P value <0.05 are shown. AGRP indicates agouti‐related protein; CCL3, C‐C motif chemokine 3; CCL20, C‐C motif chemokine 20; CD40, CD40L receptor; CHI3L1, chitinase‐3‐like protein 1; CSF‐1, macrophage colony‐stimulating factor; EN‐RAGE, protein S100‐A12; FABP4, fatty acid‐binding protein 4; FGF‐23, fibroblast growth factor 23; GDF‐15, growth/differentiation factor 15; HGF, hepatocyte growth factor; hk11, kallikrein‐11; IL‐6, interleukin‐6; LOX‐1, lectin‐like oxidized LDL receptor 1; MMP‐12, matrix metalloproteinase‐12; NTproBNP, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide; PIGF, placenta growth factor; PIVUS, the Prospective Investigation of Uppsala Seniors Study; SPON1, spondin‐1; ST2, ST2 protein; TIM‐1, T‐cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 1; TNF‐R1, tumor necrosis factor receptor 1; TRAIL‐R2, TNF‐related apoptosis‐inducing ligand receptor 2; ULSAM, Uppsala Longitudinal Study of Adult Men; and U‐PAR, urokinase plasminogen activator surface receptor.
