HR: hazard ratio. *Cox proportional hazards model adjusted by dyslipidemia, former or current smoking, alcohol consumption, previous cardiovascular heart disease, and American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease risk score, as well as lipid-lowering, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, and anticoagulant medications at baseline.
