Table 2.
Hazard ratio for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality by Cox proportional hazards models.
| All cause and cardiovascular mortality | Hazard ratio (95% CI) | p-Value |
|---|---|---|
| All causes mortality | ||
| Model 1 | 3.02 (2.67, 3.41) | <0.0001 |
| Model 2 | 2.14 (1.86, 2.46) | <0.0001 |
| Model 3 | 2.20 (1.90, 2.55) | <0.0001 |
| Cardiovascular mortality | ||
| Model 1 | 3.36 (2.61, 4.32) | <0.0001 |
| Model 2 | 2.22 (1.65, 2.97) | <0.0001 |
| Model 3 | 2.47 (1.81, 3.37) | <0.0001 |
Model 1 was adjusted for none. Model 2 was adjusted for age, sex, BMI, waist circumference, race, and poverty income ratio. Model 3 was adjusted for age, sex, BMI, waist circumference, race, poverty income ratio, albumin, chronic bronchitis, congestive heart failure, hypertension, stroke, cancer, CRP, HbA1c, cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, glucose, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, FIB-4, AST, ALT, and urinary creatinine.
BMI, body mass index; CRP, C-reactive protein; HbA1c, glycosylated hemoglobin; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; FIB-4, Fibrosis-4 index; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; ALT, alanine aminotransferase.
