a

Twenty-one participants had 2 different types of events on the same day. and I participant had 3 on the same day.

b

We calculated person-years of follow-up as time elapsed from the baseline date to vyhichever came first: any cardovasciiar disease event (ie coronary heart disease heart failure or stroke), loss to follow-up. death, or administrative end of follow-up (ie. December 31. 2016).

c

Unadjusted.

d

Adjusted for demographic characteristics: age sex. and race.

e

Adjieted for Framingham cardiovascular disease risk factors: model 2 covariates. diabetes, smoking status, systolic blood pressure antihypertensive medication use. total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol
