Smoothing curve fitting of the association between ePWV and the risk of SLI. Smooth curve fitting was performed using a generalized additive model to determine the correlation between ePWV and the risk of SLI after adjusting for age, sex, smoking, DM, CAOD, hyperlipidemia, statin medication, fasting glucose and eGFR. In this figure, the solid red line represents the estimated risk of SLI, and the dotted blue lines represent a point wise 95% confidence interval. CAOD, coronary artery occlusive disease; DM, diabetes mellitus; ePWV, estimated pulse wave velocity; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; SLI, silent lacunar infarct.
