Data are presented as adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for future CVD risk and their 95% confidence intervals, derived from the Fine and Gray’s proportional hazards regression model for the subdistribution of competing risks in which all the variables listed in the table were entered as the explanatory variables, and anti-diabetic, anti-hypertensive, and anti-hyperlipidemic medications were entered as the stratification variables. The explanatory variables except CVD history were centralized to their mean values in the model. CVD, cardiovascular disease; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein.
